Baseball Preview: McKinley Red Dragons vs. Champion Golden Flashes

The McKinley Red Dragons will head out on the road to challenge the Champion Golden Flashes at 5:00 p.m. on Thursday. Both teams took a loss in their last game, so they'll have plenty of motivation to get the 'W'.

The loss unfortunately continues a disappointing trend for McKinley in their matchups with Poland Seminary: they've now lost three in a row.

Kris Hrosar was cooking despite his team's loss, scoring two runs and stealing a base while going 1-for-3. Another player making a difference was Tyler Williams, who went 3-for-3 with an RBI.

Meanwhile, Champion fell victim to LaBrae and their airtight pitching crew on Monday. They took a 4-0 hit to the loss column at the hands of the Vikings.

McKinley came up short against Champion in their previous matchup back in May of 2021, falling 8-4. Can McKinley avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
