The Rossville Rattlers are two wins away from claiming the National Baseball Congress 19U National Championship.
The Rattlers advance to the National Semi-Final game at 11:30 am Thursday morning by beating the Butler County Cubs last night 5-1. Rossville will take on the Wichita Sluggers 18 Blue team who defeated the Wichita Sluggers 17 Blue team last night 8-0.
A win for the Rattlers means they are guaranteed a spot in the National Championship game at 4:15 Thursday afternoon. If the Rattlers lose the semi-final game, they would play in the final game of the Loser Bracket at 2:00 pm. The winner of that game would then advance to the National Championship game at 4:15 pm and would have to win twice in order to claim the Championship.
Kansas State Pitcher Levi MaVorhis will get the start this morning for the Rattlers.

9:00 am Davy Jones Cardinals vs. Wichita Reds (Loser Bracket Elimination Game)
