The Eastbrook Panthers will head out to  challenge the Southwood Knights  at 5:00  p.m.  on Tuesday. Expect the scorekeeper to be kept busy: if their previous games are any indication, these teams will really light up the scoreboard.
Eastbrook's pitching crew heads into the  game  hoping to repeat the dominance they displayed  on Monday. They were the clear victors by  an  11-0 margin over Northfield. Considering the Panthers have won five matchups by more than seven  runs this season, Monday's  blowout was nothing new.
Eastbrook got a big performance out of  Gracie Elliott, who  went 1-for-2 with two  runs, two  RBI,  and one  double.  Olivia Legg was another key player,  going a perfect 2-for-2 with three  runs.
 They weren't the only ones making solid contact: Eastbrook  kept the outfield on their toes and  finished the game with 11  hits. They are 4-1 when  they post 11 or more  hits.
Meanwhile, Southwood got the win against Bluffton  on Monday by a conclusive  16-6. The Knights haven't had any issues with the Tigers recently, as the game was their fourth consecutive  victory against them.
 Natalie Sutphin was a  major factor while hitting and pitching. On the mound, she  pitched four innings while giving up just two earned  (and two unearned) runs off   five  hits. She has been consistent: she hasn't  given up  more than two  walks any time she's  pitched this season. She was also solid in the batter's box,  going 2-for-4 with three  RBI. That's the most  RBI  she has posted since back in March of 2024.
 In other batting news,  Rylee Thomas was  incredible,  going 3-for-5 with three  runs and three  RBI. Another player making a difference was  Izzy Ashba, who  went 1-for-4 with two  runs and one  stolen base.
 The  win made it two in a row for Eastbrook and  bumps their season record up to 5-3. The  victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered a grand total of 1  runs in those games. As for Southwood, their record is now 4-1.
Fans could be in store for some top-tier slugging  on Tuesday. Eastbrook hasn't had any problems when it comes to power this season,  having  averaged 1  home runs per game. However, it's not like Southwood struggles in that department as   they've been averaging 0.4  home runs. With so much power on both teams, it'll be down to the pitchers to keep the mound locked down.
 Eastbrook came out on top in a nail-biter against Southwood when the teams last played  back in April of 2024, sneaking past  3-2. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Panthers since the  team won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
