The Lakeland Hornets will challenge the John Jay Wolves at 4:30 p.m. on Thursday. Given that the two teams suffered a loss in their last games, they both have a little extra motivation heading into this match.
After dropping their season opener at home, John Jay is headed out to face a Hornets squad ready to give their home crowd a win. Lakeland took an 8-3 hit to the loss column at the hands of Yorktown on Tuesday.
Anthony Frobose put in work no matter where he played. He struck out seven batters over 4.1 innings while giving up three earned runs off three hits (and only one walk). Frobose was also big at the plate, getting on base in three of his four plate appearances with one double and one RBI.
Frobose wasn't the only one making solid contact as three players wound up with at least one hit. One of them was Jake Consiglio, who scored a run while going 1-for-3. Lou Vernagallo was another, scoring a run while going 1-for-2.
Meanwhile, John Jay fell victim to Clarkstown South and their airtight pitching crew on Wednesday. They fell just short of the Vikings by a score of 1-0. The game marked the first time this season in which the Wolves were not able to get on the board.
Lakeland might still be hurting after the 10-0 defeat they got from John Jay when the teams last played back in April of 2024. Will the Hornets have more luck at home instead of on the road? Check MaxPreps after the action for a full breakdown of the game and more baseball content.
