Sickles is 7-1 against Leto since March of 2017 and they'll have a chance to extend that dominance on Tuesday. The Sickles Gryphons will head out on the road to face off against the Leto Falcons at 7:00 p.m. Sickles is strutting in with some hitting muscle as they've averaged 8.3 runs per game this season.
Sickles blew Strawberry Crest out of the water the last time the pair played, but on Saturday Strawberry Crest got their revenge. Sickles fell just short of Strawberry Crest by a score of 2-0. The contest marked the first time this year in which the Gryphons were not able to get on the board.
Sickles saw four different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Connor Bly, who went 2-for-3 with one double. The dominant performance also gave Bly a new career-high in hits (two).
Even though they lost, Sickles hit smart and finished the game with only one strikeout. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Strawberry Crest struck out eight times.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Leto). They were the clear victor by a 13-5 margin over King on Saturday. The Falcons might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won three matchups by eight runs or more this season.
Leto has been performing well recently as they've won three of their last four games. That's provided a nice bump to their 4-3 record this season. Those victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 2.8 runs on average over those games. The loss snapped Sickles' winning streak at three games and leaves them with a 4-3 record.
Sickles skirted past Leto 3-2 when the teams last played back in March of 2024. The rematch might be a little tougher for Sickles since the team won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
