Millard is 9-1 against Delta since April of 2016 and they'll have a chance to extend that dominance on Thursday. The Eagles will be playing at home against the Rabbits at 3:30 p.m. Millard is strutting in with some hitting muscle as they've averaged 8.4 runs per game this season.
Millard will bounce into Thursday's contest after beating South Summit, who they had gone 0-9 against in their nine prior meetings. The Eagles blew past the Wildcats 8-1 on Tuesday. The win was some much needed relief for the Eagles as it spelled an end to their three-game losing streak.
Macie Wade was a major factor while hitting and pitching. On the mound, she didn't allow a single earned run and allowed only two hits while striking out eight over seven innings pitched. Wade was also big at the plate, going 1-for-3 with two RBI and one double.
In other batting news, the team relied heavily on Paityn Taylor, who fired off two home runs while going 3-for-4. Those two home runs gave her a new career-high. Maggie Stephens was another key player, going 1-for-4 with one home run and three RBI.
Millard lost a few balls and finished the game with three home runs. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as South Summit didn't launched any.
For whatever reason, it's the away team that's had the advantage when Delta and Milford meet (four straight games heading into this one) and that held true again on Wednesday. The Rabbits had just enough and edged out the Tigers 12-10. The high-flying hitting performance was a huge turnaround for the Rabbits considering their two-run performance the matchup before.
Joslyn Christiansen was incredible, going 4-for-5 with two runs, two doubles, and two RBI. The team also got some help courtesy of Elee Anderson, who went 3-for-4 with three RBI and one double.
Millard's victory bumped their record up to 4-12. As for Delta, their win bumped their record up to 8-11.
Thursday's game will be a test for both teams' pitchers. Millard hasn't had any issues making contact this season, having earned a batting average of .317. However, it's not like Delta struggles in that department as they've averaged .326. With both teams so capable at the plate, fans should be ready for an impressive hitting performance.
Everything went Millard's way against Delta in their previous matchup back in March, as Millard made off with a 22-2 victory. Will the Eagles repeat their success, or do the Rabbits have a new game plan this time around? We'll find out soon enough.
