Baseball Preview: Schurr Spartans vs. Paramount Pirates

The Schurr Spartans are on the road again on Monday to play the Paramount Pirates at 3:15 p.m. The last four games Schurr has played have been within two runs, so don't be surprised if it's a close one.

On Thursday, Schurr didn't have quite enough to beat Oxford Academy and fell 2-1. That's two games in a row now that Schurr has lost by just one run.

He has been consistent recently: he hasn't given up more than two walks in five consecutive pitching appearances. LJ Ramirez came in to relieve Trevino and was airtight, giving up no runs, hits or walks in his one inning pitched.

At the plate, Schurr saw five different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Nathan Salinas, who scored a run and stole a base while going 1-for-2.
