The Lane Knights will head out on the road to challenge the Stuyvesant Peglegs at 3:45 p.m. on Wednesday. Lane comes in still looking for their first win of the season.
Wednesday just wasn't the day for Lane's offense. They might be feeling deja-vu: they lost 9-0 to Grand Street Campus, which was the same score (and result) they got the week prior.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Stuyvesant). Everything went their way against Flushing on Monday as they made off with a 21-5 win. With that victory, the Peglegs brought their scoring average up to 6.2 runs per game.
Dean Hevenstone was a major factor while hitting and pitching. On the mound, he struck out nine batters over four innings while giving up just one earned (and one unearned) run off two hits. Hevenstone was also big at the plate, going 3-for-4 with four runs, two stolen bases, and one triple. Those hits were his first of the season.
In other batting news, Rohail Shah was a standout: he fired off two home runs, six RBI, and one double while going 3-for-4. Jacob Mui was another key player, getting on base in all five of his plate appearances with one home run, three runs, and three RBI.
Stuyvesant always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .674. That's the best OBP they've posted all season.
Stuyvesant's record is now 2-3. As for Lane, their defeat dropped their record down to 0-6.
Lane might still be hurting after the 10-0 loss they got from Stuyvesant in their previous matchup back in May of 2023. Can the Knights avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
