The Thacher Toads will venture away from home to square off against the Dunn Earwigs at 4:00 p.m. on Tuesday. Thacher is strutting in with some hitting muscle as they've averaged 6.2 runs per game this season.
Last Thursday, Thacher came up short against Grace and fell 6-1. The Toads have now taken an 'L' in back-to-back games.
Thacher saw three different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Max Ho, who went 1-for-3 with one RBI.
Meanwhile, Dunn fought the good fight in their extra-innings contest against Grace on Saturday but wound up with a less-than-desirable result. They fell just short of the Lancers by a score of 3-2. Having soared to a lofty 18 runs in the game before, the Earwigs couldn't push the score so high this time.
Hudson Von Der Lieth made the most of his time in the batter's box despite the final result and went 2-for-3 with two runs, one triple, and one stolen base. He has been hot recently, having posted at least one stolen base the last three times he's played. Austin Kong also deserves some recognition as he got his first hit of the season.
Dunn's loss dropped their record down to 11-6. As for Thacher, they now have a losing record of 6-7.
The batters for both teams will have to hit smart on Tuesday as both have some strikeout artists on the roster. Thacher has been retiring batters left and right this season, having averaged 6.8 strikeouts per game. However, it's not like Dunn struggles in that department as they've been averaging an even more impressive 7.9 strikeouts. Considering how easily both teams rack up Ks, the hitters on both teams better bring their A-game into this one.
Everything went Thacher's way against Dunn in their previous meeting back in April of 2024, as Thacher made off with a 26-10 win. Do the Toads have another victory up their sleeve, or will the Earwigs turn the tables on them? We'll have the answer soon enough.
