Plainfield East extended their losing streak to three on Saturday, dropping them down to 8-6. They were a single run away from ending the streak, but they lost a 14-13 heartbreaker at the hands of the Marmion Cadets. That's two games in a row now that the Bengals have lost by just one run.
As for Marmion, their record now sits at 5-7-1. The high-scoring effort was just what they needed considering they were shut out in their previous game.
For Marmion's part, Emmit Collins was incredible, getting on base in four of his five plate appearances with three RBI, two runs, and one double. What's more, Collins posted two hits, the most he's had since back in May of 2025. Alex Saling also deserves some recognition as he scored his first run of the season.
While Plainfield East had to take the loss, they won't have to wait long to give it another shot: the pair will be back at it again later today.
