The Minnesota state amateur baseball tournament – better known as "town ball" by its fans – kicks off play in Class B and C on Friday with games in Faribault, Dundas and Miesville. Both tournaments run through the first weekend in September. The Class C tournament, which is generally the most widely followed, includes 48 teams in a single-elimination format. The 16-team Class B tournament has two rounds of elimination games before the final four teams go into a double-elimination round. The Class C tournament championship game is scheduled for noon on Labor Day in Faribault.
