Baseball Game Preview: Parkview Panthers vs. Peachtree Ridge Lions

For the first time this season, Parkview will have a chance to prove themselves in a conference matchup on Monday. A feisty cat fight will be fought as Parkview Panthers challenge Peachtree Ridge Lions at 6:00 p.m. The two teams have allowed few runs on average, (they 2.7, Peachtree Ridge 4.1) so any runs scored will be well earned.

Parkview is headed in fresh off scoring the most runs they have all season. They put the hurt on Jackson County with a sharp 12-3 victory on Friday. Perhaps unsurprisingly given the team's high-flying offense, the game also marked the team's biggest win of the season.

Porter Berryman tossed a big game, striking out nine batters over five innings while giving up just one earned (and one unearned) run off five hits. That's the most strikeouts he has posted since back in May of 2024.

On the hitting side, Parkview got a massive performance out of Mason Davis, who scored a run while going 2-for-3. The dominant performance also gave Davis a new career-high in doubles (two). Malachi Washington was another key player, going 1-for-3 with three RBI, one triple, and one run.

Meanwhile, Peachtree Ridge had to endure a three-game losing streak, but that streak is no more. They came out on top against Winder-Barrow on Monday by a score of 5-2 (the very same score they lost by in their prior game).

Parkview has been performing incredibly well recently as they've won six of their last seven matchups. That's provided a nice bump to their 7-3 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 2.3 runs on average over those games. Peachtree Ridge now has a winning record of 6-5.

Parkview took their victory against Peachtree Ridge when the teams last played back in April of 2019 by a conclusive 6-0. Does Parkview have another victory up their sleeve, or will Peachtree Ridge turn the tables on them? We'll have the answer soon enough.
