The Therwil Flyers (14-2; 7-1) continue to lead the Swiss Softball League after two victories over the Wil Devils this past weekend. The Flyers have won eight straight games and will host the second place Bern Cardinals on Sunday in Therwil.

The Flyers are the two-time defending champs and are led by Babsi MEIERHANS (OF), Susan STAUB (C), and Melanie WANNER (IF). Next weekend’s matchup against Bern will be part of the Swiss Baseball Cup finals also being held in Therwil.

The Challengers (9-7; 3-5) will battle league-leading Therwil on September 1 and close-out the regular season on September 9 against the Wil Devils. National team pitcher Leandra SIMITOVIC and Alexia ZINGG.
