The current COVID-19 pandemic isn’t going to stop baseball in Salina.
Following a weekend filled with tryouts, the Salina Falcons, Hawks and Eagles are prepared for 2020 seasons. This season will be the 90th anniversary, according to the Salina Baseball Enterprises Twitter page.
The Salina Falcons and Hawks open the new campaign Tuesday evening. The Falcons travel to Hutchinson while the Hawks welcome Hutch.
On May 12, the Kansas American Legion Baseball Committee ordered to cancel the 2020 Zone and State tournaments. On April 7, the Americanism Commission, in consultation with National Commander James William “Bill” Oxford, announced the cancellation of all 2020 American Legion Baseball national tournaments. That included all eight Regional Tournaments and the American Legion World Series in Shelby, N.C.
Postseason play will still be possible for the Falcons, Hawks and Eagles. The Kansas Grand Slam will take place as well.
