Softball Game Preview: Lindale Eagles vs. Malakoff Tigers

The Lindale Eagles will square off against the Malakoff Tigers at 6:30 p.m. on Tuesday. Neither Lindale nor Malakoff posted many runs in their last games, so it might be the pitching crews that decide this one.

Lindale saw some tournament action on Saturday. They came up short against Pollok Central, falling 11-1. The match marked the Eagles' lowest-scoring game so far this season.

Lindale saw two different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Emma Watkins, who went 1-for-2 with one triple and one RBI. That triple was Watkins' first of the season.

Meanwhile, it was a proper cat-fight when Malakoff faced off against Kerens last Friday. The two teams finished up on equal footing with a 0-0 draw.

Lindale has traveled a rocky road recently having lost three of their last four contests. That's put a noticeable dent in their 4-3 record this season. With that tie, Malakoff's record moves to 3-0-1.
