Baseball Game Preview: Johnson Governors vs. Highland Park Scots

Johnson hasn't had much luck against Highland Park recently, but that could start to change on Wednesday. The Governors will be playing in front of their home fans against the Scots at 4:30 p.m. Johnson has given up an average of 9 runs per game this season, but Wednesday's game will give them a chance to turn things around.

The home team had come away the winner the last six times Johnson and Como Park had met, but sadly for the fans who attended this one that wasn't the case. The Governors fell 13-10 to the Cougars on Tuesday.

Meanwhile, Highland Park entered their tilt with St. Paul Central on Tuesday with two consecutive wins, and they'll enter their next game with three. They never let the Minutemen get on the board and left with an 8-0 win. The result was nothing new for the Scots, who have now won five matches by six runs or more so far this season.

Highland Park's victory was their fifth straight at home dating back to last season, which pushed their record up to 6-1. Those home wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 0.6 runs on average over those games. As for Johnson, their defeat dropped their record down to 1-5.

Johnson might still be hurting after the 11-1 loss they got from Highland Park in their previous meeting last Monday. Will the Governors have more luck at home instead of on the road? Come back here after the game to get an analysis of the match and other baseball content.
