Thursday, September 6th , 2063
For the Walla Walla Walleye, it's not how you start, but how you finish. That's the mantra the team is following after today qualifying for the playoffs.
"We may be going into the playoffs as a wild card team, but we plan to finish the playoffs as champions," said starting pitcher Layton Irving. "There's no shortage of confidence from guys in our clubhouse."
