Last Monday, De Soto sure made it a nail-biter, but they managed to escape with a 7-6 win over Bonner Springs. That's two games straight that De Soto has won by just one run.
Meanwhile, Seaman had already won two in a row (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 6.5 runs), and they went ahead and made it three on Wednesday. They came out on top against the Indians by a score of 13-8.

De Soto might still be hurting after the 15-4 loss they got from Seaman in their previous matchup back in April of 2023. Thankfully for De Soto, Aspen Burgardt (who went 3-for-4 with a home run, four RBI, and two runs) won't be suiting up this time. Will that be enough to change the final result?
