Springfield had lost four straight on the road, but on Monday they dropped their record down to 6-16 to make it five. They might be feeling deja-vu: they lost 11-1 to the Northeast Eagles, which was the same score (and result) they got the week prior. If the Yellow Jackets were looking for revenge after losing 11-9 to the Eagles when the teams met back in May of 2024, then they'll just have to keep looking.
Springfield saw six different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Jackson Goodfred, who went 1-for-3 with one double and one RBI.
As for Northeast, they have been performing well recently as they've won nine of their last 12 contests. That's provided a massive bump to their 13-15 record this season. The victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 8.3 runs over those games.
On Northeast's side, Isaiah Robinson made a splash while hitting and pitching. He struck out six batters over six innings while giving up just one earned run off six hits. Robinson has been nothing but reliable on the mound: he hasn't tossed less than five strikeouts in five consecutive appearances. He was also solid in the batter's box, going 2-for-3 with two runs. He is becoming a predictor of Northeast's success: when he posts at least two runs the team is 6-1 (and 7-14 when he doesn't).
In other batting news, Cameron Skaggs was incredible, going 2-for-3 with two stolen bases, three runs, and one RBI. That's the most stolen bases he has posted since back in March. The team also got some help courtesy of Kaydin Mendibles, who got on base in three of his four plate appearances with two runs, one stolen base, and two RBI.
While Springfield 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 6:30 p.m. on Tuesday.
