The Pella baseball team opens at home to begin the Class 3A playoffs this evening. Bondurant-Farrar is the No. 6 seed in Class 3A Substate 5, and has a 13-14 overall record. No. 3 seeded Pella is 20-15, and will most likely see Bluejays’ Ace Holden McIntosh on the mound, who is 4-4 this summer with a 2.17 ERA with 46 strikeouts in 38 1/3 innings. Bondurant averages 5.4 runs per game and last defeated the Dutch one week ago 7-5, albeit in a game where neither team wanted to show top pitching since it had been announced they’d be first round playoff opponents. The all-time series in the Varsity Bound/Quikstats era is 5-5, with the Bluejays winning four in a row since 2018. Coverage of Pella postseason baseball starts at 6:45 this evening on 92.1 KRLS.
