There's not an off day when a team competes in the Big 8, and for Middleton, one year after finishing in the middle of the pack in a crowded, deep, and talented Big 8 Conference, that same sentiment holds true in 2018. Middleton Cardinals coach Tom Schmitt explains how the new pitcher-practice rule helped the Cardinals get ready for the season, and what the addition of summer baseball teams to the spring baseball pool will do for the sport in 2019.
Middleton plays in a double-header Wednesday to open the season.
