For the second straight game, Hardin will face off against Warren. The Hornets will host the Warriors at 6:00 p.m. on Friday. Hardin is strutting in with some hitting muscle as they've averaged 6.6 runs per game this season.

Hardin is probably headed into the match with a chip on their shoulder considering Warren just ended the team's four-game winning streak on Tuesday. They took a 6-3 hit to the loss column at the hands of the Warriors.

For Warren's part, Levi Ledbetter spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: he surrendered three earned runs on five hits. Ledbetter has been consistent : he hasn't given up more than two walks in seven consecutive appearances.

On the hitting side, Easton Evans was incredible, going 1-for-2 with one home run and two RBI. That's the most RBI he has posted since back in February. The team also got some help courtesy of Cyrus Cimei, who scored a run while going 2-for-4.

Warren's victory was their third straight at home, which pushed their record up to 11-10. The home wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 2.7 runs on average over those games. As for Hardin, their loss dropped their record down to 12-7.

The pitchers for both teams better look sharp on Friday as neither team is afraid to steal. Hardin has been swiping bases left and right this season, having averaged 3.9 stolen bases per game. However, it's not like Warren struggles in that department as they've been averaging 3 stolen bases. The only question left is which team can snag more.
