Its round seven in the German Baseball-Bundesliga, as the first half of the regular season comes to an end. The game day will be highlighted by the showdown between the Solingen Alligators and the Untouchables Paderborn. Solingen leads the standings with an 11-1 record, followed by Paderborn (9-1, rainout in Cologne a couple weeks ago). It is a familiar outcome in the northern division, as both teams dominated the league the last few years.
In the south the Heidenheim Heidekoepfe host the leading Mainz Athletics, as the first five teams are only separated by three games. The Buchbinder Legionaere Regensburg and the Mannheim Tornados will be at home, trying to make up ground with matchups against the Stuttgart Reds and Bad Homburg Hornets. In the north three more doubleheaders are scheduled with Dortmund hosting Hamburg, Dohren taking on Cologne and Berlin squaring off with Bonn.
