Limon has gone a perfect 5-0 against Wiggins recently and they'll look to pad the win column further on Tuesday. The Badgers will head out on the road to square off against the Tigers at 3:00 p.m. Limon has given up an average of 7.3 runs per game this season, but Tuesday's game will give them a chance to turn things around.
Limon fought the good fight in their extra-innings match against Peyton on Friday but wound up with a less-than-desirable result. They fell just short of the Panthers by a score of 11-10. Give some credit to the fans of both teams: the last five times they've met, the home team has come away the winner.
Brooks Scherrer was huge while hitting and pitching even without the win. He looked comfortable on the mound, striking out eight batters over six innings while giving up four earned runs off six hits. Scherrer was also stellar in the batter's box, getting on base in all six of his plate appearances with two stolen bases, two runs, and one double.
In other batting news, Brody Scherrer and Camdyn Tacha stepped up to the plate in a big way. Scherrer went 2-for-5 with two stolen bases, two runs, and one RBI, while Tacha got on base in four of his six plate appearances with three RBI and two runs. The team also got some help courtesy of Liam Yoder, who got on base in five of his six plate appearances with two runs and one stolen base.
Meanwhile, Wiggins didn't have quite enough to beat Liberty Common on Saturday and fell 7-6. The Tigers have now taken an 'L' in back-to-back games.
Like Limon, Wiggins also got a great game from a two-way player: Marcus Steinbar. Throwing, Steinbar struck out six batters over 3.2 innings while giving up just two earned (and two unearned) runs off three hits. Meanwhile, Alex Tarango pitched 2.1 innings while giving up no earned runs off two hits. He has been consistent recently: he hasn't given up more than one earned run in four consecutive appearances. At bat, Steinbar went 1-for-4 with two stolen bases, one run, and one RBI, while Tarango got on base in all four of his plate appearances with one run.
In other batting news, Arath Carrazco was cooking despite his team's loss, going 2-for-3 with one run and one RBI. Another player making a difference was Karter Roberts, who got on base in two of his four plate appearances with one run and one RBI.
Wiggins now has a losing record of 10-11. As for Limon, they dropped their record down to 11-8 with the loss, which was their fourth straight on the road.
The pitchers for both teams better look sharp on Tuesday as neither team is afraid to steal. Limon has been swiping bases left and right this season, having averaged 5.4 stolen bases per game. However, it's not like Wiggins struggles in that department as they've been averaging 3 stolen bases. The only question left is which team can snag more.
Limon was able to grind out a solid victory over Wiggins in their previous matchup back in March of 2024, winning 8-5. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Badgers since the team won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
