Whenever Mahtomedi’s starting pitcher Winston Wisely took the Target Field mound in the Class 3A baseball state championship game on Saturday, Zephyrs coach Rob Garry had two words of advice to offer: slow down.

“I was telling him to walk slowly, do everything slowly,” Garry said. “He changes speeds so well, but he needs that rhythm.”

The deliberate approach worked wonders in Mahtomedi’s 6-2 victory over Mankato East at Target Field. After giving up two walks and two hits in the bottom of the first inning — and a tying run — Wisely wisely listened to his coach.
