The North Mason Bulldogs will challenge the Bainbridge Spartans at 4:15 p.m. on Thursday. The timing is sure in North Mason's favor as the team sits on three straight wins at home while Bainbridge has been banged up by six consecutive losses on the road dating back to last season.
North Mason took a ten-run loss the last time they faced off against Kingston, but this time they managed to keep it close and that made all the difference. The Bulldogs had just enough and edged out the Buccaneers 3-2.

Addyson Roy spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered two runs (both of which were unearned) on one hit and racked up seven Ks. She has been nothing but reliable: she hasn't tossed less than five strikeouts in four consecutive appearances.
At the plate, Taylor Madison and Kennady Carson did most of the damage at the plate: Madison went 1-for-3 with one home run and two RBI, while Carson got on base in three of her four plate appearances with one stolen base and one run. Carson has been hot recently, having posted at least one stolen base the last three times she's played. Another player making a difference was Jenna Markuson, who went 1-for-2 with one run and one double.
Meanwhile, Bainbridge beat Bremerton 5-1 on Monday.
Rollins Anderson made a big impact while hitting and pitching. On the mound, she pitched seven innings while giving up just one earned run off four hits. Anderson was also big at the plate, going 2-for-3 with two RBI and one double. That's the most RBI she has posted since back in May of 2024.
Anderson wasn't the only one making solid contact as five players wound up with at least one hit. One of them was Avery Macgregor, who went 2-for-4 with one run and one RBI. Those two hits gave Macgregor a new career-high. Audrey Leong also deserves some recognition as she scored her first run of the season.
North Mason has been performing well recently as they've won five of their last six matchups. That's provided a nice bump to their 11-6-1 record this season. Those wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 9.8 runs over those games. Bainbridge's first victory this season bumped their record up to 1-10.
North Mason's speedy runners might be the difference in Thursday's contest. The Bulldogs have been swiping bases left and right this season, having averaged 4.8 stolen bases per game. It's a different story for Bainbridge, though, as they've been averaging only 0.3 stolen bases. Will they be able to secure the bases, or will North Mason continue to outrun the ball?
Everything went North Mason's way against Bainbridge in their previous matchup back in April, as North Mason made off with a 15-0 win. Will the Bulldogs repeat their success, or do the Spartans have a new game plan this time around? We'll find out soon enough.
