Zone 5 - Bay City/MI Post 18 - there is no Class AA team from Zone 5, so the runnerup from Zone 4 is selected;

Schedule (unofficial!) -

Note - Game 10 (Saturday) was restarted / replayed on Sunday due to a pitch-count related protest - both of the articles referenced below address the issue - in brief (as I read it) using a pitcher twice in the same day / pitch-count and timing of the protest. I have chosen to list both - game 10A and 10B (official game).
