Saturday, May 10, we will start games at 11:30 and continue again through a 7 p.m. night cap game under the lights. This will be a special day for Wahkiakum Youth Baseball. We will be dedicating Field 1, Bjorge Field after longtime sponsor and supporter of youth sports, Jim Bjorge. At 4:15 pm, prior to the start of the 4:30 Majors game, we will have a short dedication of the field in Jim’s memory.
