Hebron has gone a perfect 4-0 against Knox recently and they'll look to pad the win column further on Tuesday. The Hawks will challenge the Redskins at 4:30 p.m. Hebron is strutting in with some hitting muscle as they've averaged 6.6 runs per game this season.

The home team had won the previous three meetings between Hebron and Hammond Morton, and Hebron kept the tradition alive. The Hawks walked away with a 7-2 win over the Governors on Monday. Seven seems to be a good number for the Hawks as the team scooped up a victory with the same number of runs in their previous game.

Hebron saw seven different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Josh Kenda, who went a perfect 1-for-1 with two RBI and one run. That's the most RBI Kenda has posted over his last seven matches. Another was Luke Charpentier, who went 2-for-3 with two runs.

Meanwhile, Knox didn't have quite enough to beat Frontier on Saturday and fell 3-2. That's two games in a row now that the Redskins have lost by just one run.

Knox's loss was their fourth straight at home, which dropped their record down to 10-9. Even worse, they were so close so many times: the defeats came by an average of only 2.75 runs. As for Hebron, they have been performing well recently as they've won four of their last five games. That's provided a nice bump to their 13-8-1 record this season.

Everything went Hebron's way against Knox in their previous meeting back in May of 2022, as Hebron made off with a 16-1 win. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Hawks since the squad won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
