The Spring Hill Raiders will face off against the Tullahoma Wildcats at 6:30 p.m. on Thursday. Spring Hill is strutting in with some hitting muscle as they've averaged 6.7 runs per game this season.
Spring Hill was handed a ten-run defeat in their previous outing, but that didn't affect their clutch gene on Tuesday. They came out on top in a nail-biter against Franklin County, sneaking past 10-9. For those keeping track at home, that's the closest victory the Raiders have posted since April 8, 2024.
Ethan Christie looked comfortable as he tossed two innings while giving up no earned runs or hits. He has been consistent : he hasn't given up more than one earned run in six consecutive appearances.
On the hitting side, Keegan Yoakum was incredible, going 2-for-4 with one home run, five RBI, and two runs. That's the most runs he has posted since back in April of 2024. Will McGlacken was another key player, going 2-for-4 with two RBI and one double.
Meanwhile, Tullahoma waltzed into their match on Tuesday with three straight wins... but they left with four. They blew past the Cardinals 8-0. The Wildcats' pitching crew has been rock solid lately; the team hasn't given up a run in their last three contests.
Mason Bratcher was a major factor no matter where he played. On the mound, he didn't allow a single earned run and allowed only one hit while striking out 14 over seven innings pitched. Bratcher was also big at the plate, going a perfect 2-for-2 with two RBI.
Bratcher wasn't the only one making solid contact as five players wound up with at least one hit. One of them was Andrew Fulmer, who scored a run while going 2-for-4. Fulmer also put up a double, which was his first of the season.
Tullahoma's win was their third straight at home, which pushed their record up to 4-6. The wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 0.3 runs on average over those games. As for Spring Hill, they now have a winning record of 4-3.
Tullahoma's pitching crew has a crucial task ahead of them: Spring Hill hasn't had any issues making contact this season, having earned a batting average of .325. It's a different story for Tullahoma, though, as they've only averaged .257. Will they be able to contain Spring Hill's hitters?
Spring Hill couldn't quite get it done against Tullahoma in their previous meeting back in April of 2023 as they fell 6-1. Can Spring Hill avenge their loss or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
