The Whitehall Zephyrs will head out on the road to challenge the Liberty Hurricanes at 4:00 p.m. on Thursday. Both teams come into the match bolstered by wins in their previous matches.
Whitehall took care of business in their home opener on Tuesday (and then some). Everything went their way against Allentown Central Catholic as Whitehall made off with a 10-0 win.
Ryan Lindenmuth spent all six innings played on the mound, and it's clear why: he surrendered just zero earned runs on one hit and racked up eight Ks.
On the hitting side, Seth Hoderewski was incredible, going 4-for-4 with three RBI, two runs, and a triple. Rob Yankowy was another key contributor, scoring a run while getting on base in three of his four plate appearances.
Meanwhile, Liberty had to travel to play their first game of the season, but the final result was worth the trip. They had just enough and edged Bethlehem Catholic out 4-3.
Franklin Pichardo was excellent, going 4-for-4 with a double and an RBI. Another player making a difference was Braylen Gonzalez, who went 1-for-4 with a home run.
Whitehall came up short against Liberty when the teams last played back in April of 2021, falling 6-1. Thankfully for Whitehall, Devin Fletcher (who didn't allow a single hit, only one earned run while striking out nine over 5.2 innings pitched) won't be suiting up this time. Will that be enough to change the final result? There's only one way to find out.
