Preview: Scott County Cardinals vs. Lafayette Generals
The Scott County Cardinals will head out on the road to take on the Lafayette Generals at 6:00 p.m. on Tuesday. Both teams took a loss in their last game, so they'll have plenty of motivation to get the 'W'.
Scott County couldn't capitalize on their home-field advantage in their season opener. They took a 6-2 hit to the loss column at the hands of Bullitt East last Monday.
Ada Little spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered five earned (and one unearned) runs on six hits and racked up eight Ks.
On the hitting side, Taylor Reid was cooking despite her team's loss, getting on base in all three of her plate appearances with a home run.
Lafayette won a close one the last time they played, but unfortunately they suffered a serious change of fortune on Monday. Their tough 10-4 defeat to Madison Central might stick with them for a while.
Jenna Wells made the most of her time at bat despite the final result and scored two runs and stole three bases while going 2-for-3. Wells is crushing it when it comes to stolen bases: she's stolen at least one every time she's taken the field this season. Another player making a difference was Kavery Myrick, who went 1-for-4 with two RBI and a double.
Scott County might still be hurting after the 9-1 loss they got from Lafayette in their previous meeting back in May of 2023. Thankfully for Scott County, Trinity Bridges (who struck out eight batters over seven innings while giving up just one earned run off four hits) won't be suiting up this time. Will that be enough to change the final result? There's only one way to find out.
