Softball Preview: Lima Senior Spartans vs. Perry Commodores
The Lima Senior Spartans will head out on the road to challenge the Perry Commodores at 5:00 p.m. on Tuesday. Given that the two teams suffered a loss in their last game, they both have a little extra motivation heading into this match.
Lima Senior kicked off their season on the road two weeks ago and hit a couple of potholes. Their rough 17-6 loss to Ada might stick with them for a while.
Meanwhile, Perry pushed their score all the way to 12 on Saturday, but even that wasn't enough to win. They fell 15-12 to New Bremen. Perry has now taken an 'L' in back-to-back games.
Lexenna Lee was cooking despite her team's loss, going 4-for-4 with four RBI, two runs, and a stolen base. Kiya Manley was another key contributor, scoring two runs and stealing a base while going 1-for-4.
Even though they lost, Perry didn't let batters stay on the plate for long and finished the game with five strikeouts. That's the most strikeouts they've managed all season.
Lima Senior skirted past Perry 8-7 when the teams last played back in April of 2023. One of the biggest obstacles trying to stand in the way of that victory was Perry's Isabella Anderson, who didn't allow a single earned run over six innings pitched. Now that she won't be playing on Tuesday, will it be that much easier for Lima Senior to walk away with another win? Check MaxPreps.com after the match to find out.
