Baseball Preview: Red Lion Lions vs. Dallastown Wildcats

The Red Lion Lions will head out on the road to challenge the Dallastown Wildcats at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Red Lion is currently enjoying a perfect season and no doubt wants to keep things rolling.

Last Wednesday, Red Lion earned a 7-2 victory over Northeastern.

Red Lion's win was truly a team effort as five different players contributed at least one hit. One of them was Jaden Taylor, who went 1-for-3 with three RBI.

Meanwhile, Dallastown came into Wednesday's matchup having lost four straight, but that streak is now in the rearview. They blew past Central York 13-6. Dallastown's hitters stepped up their game for this one, as that was the most runs they've scored all season.

Ryan Miller was a standout: he scored two runs while going 2-for-5. The team also got some help courtesy of Issac Miller, who scored three runs and stole a base while going 2-for-3.

Red Lion pushed their record up to 6-0 with that victory, which was their third straight at home. As for Dallastown, their win ended a three-game drought on the road and puts them at 2-4.

Red Lion was able to grind out a solid victory over Dallastown in their previous matchup back in May of 2023, winning 9-5. One of the biggest obstacles trying to stand in the way of that victory was Dallastown's Kyle Hampson, who tossed two innings while giving up no earned runs or hits (he also didn't allow any walks). Now that he won't be playing on Friday, will it be that much easier for Red Lion to walk away with another win? There's only one way to find out.
