Baseball Game Preview: Medford Mustangs vs. Reading Memorial Rockets

Medford hasn't had much luck against Reading Memorial recently, but that could start to change on Saturday. The Mustangs will be playing in front of their home fans against the Rockets at 11:00 a.m. The two teams have allowed few runs on average (Medford 3.4, Reading Memorial 1.8) so any runs scored will be well earned.

On Thursday, Medford and Winthrop finished up their matchup with a 3-3 draw.

Meanwhile, Reading Memorial never let their opponents score on Thursday. They walked away with a 5-0 win over Arlington. That's two games straight that the Rockets have won by exactly five runs.

The victory made it two in a row for Reading Memorial and bumps their season record up to 4-1. Those wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered a grand total of 1 runs in those games. With that tie, Medford's record moves to 2-2-1.

Medford might still be hurting after the 9-2 defeat they got from Reading Memorial in their previous meeting back in April of 2024. Will the Mustangs have more luck at home instead of on the road?
