The Seeger Patriots will take on the Twin Lakes Indians at 6:00 p.m. on Wednesday. Seeger is strutting in with some hitting muscle as they've averaged 6.2 runs per game this season.
Seeger will roll into the matchup after a wild two-game stretch: they didn't score any runs on Monday, then bounced right back against Attica on Tuesday. The Patriots came out on top against the Red Ramblers by a score of 11-0 (the very same score they lost by in their prior game). The Patriots might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won seven contests by six runs or more this season.
Xavier Lang was a major factor no matter where he played. He looked comfortable on the mound, keeping things locked down with no earned runs or hits while striking out ten over five innings pitched. He is becoming a predictor of Seeger's success: when he posts at least eight strikeouts the team is undefeated (and 9-10 when he doesn't). Lang was also solid in the batter's box, getting on base in all three of his plate appearances with three runs and one stolen base.

Macyn Hughes was another key player, going 1-for-2 with two runs, one stolen base, and one RBI.
Seeger always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .538. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Attica only posted an OBP of .222.
Meanwhile, Twin Lakes came tearing into Saturday's game with four straight wins (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 7.5 runs), and they left with even more momentum. They came within a single run of losing the streak, but they secured a 5-4 W against the Panthers. That's two games straight that the Indians have won by just one run.
Trae Haworth spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: he surrendered only one earned (and three unearned) runs on eight hits and racked up six Ks.
At the plate, Twin Lakes saw two different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Aidan Holle, who went 1-for-3 with one run and one RBI.
Seeger is on a roll lately: they've won seven of their last nine matches. That's provided a nice bump to their 13-10 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 8.4 runs over those games. As for Twin Lakes, their victory was their fourth straight at home, which pushed their record up to 16-8.
The pitchers for both teams better look sharp on Wednesday as neither team is afraid to steal. Seeger has been swiping bases left and right this season, having averaged 3.5 stolen bases per game. However, it's not like Twin Lakes struggles in that department as they've been averaging an even more impressive 4.5 stolen bases. The only question left is which team can snag more.
