Baseball: Mission League switches to playing three games a week in spring
- Share via
Mission League baseball coaches have voted to switch their schedule to playing one team three times in a week similar to what the Trinity League did this past season.
Games will be played on Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday next spring against the same opponent.
“We all wanted to give this a shot,” said former Harvard-Westlake baseball Coach Matt LaCour, who resigned to become an athletic director at the school. “We talked to the Trinity League people and they were overwhelmingly in favor of it.”
The decision means that teams will have to come up with three capable starting pitchers to win a league title next season. They won’t be able to rely on just one top pitcher to get through top teams in league play.
