Notre Dame Academy extended their losing streak to three on Tuesday, dropping their season record down to 8-4 in the process. They might be feeling deja-vu: they lost 6-5 to the Seymour Thunder, which was the same score (and result) they got the week prior. The Tritons were given a dose of their own medicine in this game as the Thunder apparently hadn't forgotten their defeat the last time these teams played back in June of 2015.
Notre Dame Academy saw five different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Christian Collins, who went 1-for-4 with one home run and two RBI.
As for Seymour, the victory (which was their third in a row) raised their record to 9-2. The wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 2.3 runs on average over those games.
On Seymour's side, the team relied heavily on Micah Byers, who went a perfect 3-for-3 with three RBI and two doubles. Those two doubles gave Byers a new career-high.
Coming up, Notre Dame Academy will face off against Green Bay Preble at 4:30 p.m. on Wednesday. The Hornets' pitching crew has only allowed 2.4 runs per game this season, so the Tritons' hitters will have their work cut out for them. As for Seymour, they will challenge Freedom at 4:30 p.m. on Thursday. The timing is sure in the Thunder's favor as the squad sits on five straight wins at home while the Irish have been banged up by four consecutive losses on the road.
