Breaking Down the WPIAL and District 9 Baseball and Softball Championships

"You're not Derek!" Nope, she's not. Laura steps into the host seat for the first time with Derek and Brendan in parts unknown so we can drop a special Memorial Day episode previewing this week's WPIAL and District 9 baseball and softball championships. The stars have aligned for Butler to finally win a WPIAL baseball title. They have the ace pitchers (plural) and some serious pop in the lineup. They haven't lost in nearly a month. Can the Tornado finish the job? And what might sink them? Then we break down Moniteau baseball's title tilt with Redbank Valley over in District 9, plus Karns City softball's clash with St. Marys.  And can Seneca Valley softball finally slay the Hempfield dragon in the third try in the last four years? Jake lays out the matchups and hints at some predictions for a few of these games.
