Fernley is on a roll lately: they've won seven of their last eight games. That's provided a nice bump to their 26-9 record this season. Those wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 3.4 runs on average over those games. As for Lowry, their loss dropped their record down to 26-7.
Both Lowry and Fernley just can't seem to miss. The Buckaroos have been making plenty of contact this season, having averaged 10.6 hits per game. However, it's not like Fernley struggles in that department as they've been averaging only 4.8 hits. With both teams so capable at the plate, fans should be ready for an impressive hitting performance.
Lowry beat Fernley 5-2 in their previous meeting on Thursday. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Buckaroos since the team won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
