■ Lakers drop home opener to Maple Woods (The Current)

A 91-mph heater from Maple Woods pitcher Jeff Cline retired Egge on a foul tip strikeout. Cline was brilliant, keeping Laker hitters off-balance all day with ferocious velocity and a nasty slider. He picked up the win, throwing six innings and allowing no runs on just three hits.

■ Bombers ace shuts out raiders (Lawrence Journal World, 6/28/2009)

Jeff Cline may not be the next Nolan Ryan. Or Walter Johnson. Or Tom Seaver.

But Cline looked like a future Hall of Famer Saturday night as the 6-foot-2 right-hander mowed down the Legion Raiders in the Al Ice Woodbat Classic.

Cline allowed just one hit and fanned 16 during a seven-inning route-going performance in the Kansas City Bombers’ 5-0 victory at Hoglund Ballpark.
