The pitchers for both teams better look sharp on Thursday as neither team is afraid to steal. Greenfield has been swiping bases left and right this season, having averaged 3.4 stolen bases per game. However, it's not like Madison struggles in that department as they've been averaging an even more impressive 4.4 stolen bases. The only question left is which team can snag more.
Greenfield might still be hurting after the 11-5 defeat they got from Madison in their previous meeting back in March. Can the Yellowjackets avenge their loss or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
