West Liberty dropped their record down to 14-10 on Monday, which also ended the team's three-game streak of wins on the road. They fell just short of the Durant Wildcats by a score of 2-1. The Comets were given a dose of their own medicine in this game as the Wildcats apparently hadn't forgotten their defeat the last time these teams played back in May of 2024.
As for Durant, they are on a roll lately: they've won ten of their last 13 games. That's provided a nice bump to their 15-7 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 6.5 runs over those games.
For Durant's part, the team relied heavily on Trey Ramer, who got on base in four of his five plate appearances with one run and one double. What's more, Ramer posted two hits, the most he's had since back in June of 2024.
While West Liberty had to take the loss, they won't have to wait long to give it another shot: the pair's next game is a rematch scheduled at 7:00 p.m. on Tuesday.
