If Bonita Springs was riding high fresh off their 18-7 takedown of Lely last Monday, their most recent game may have dampened their spirits a bit. The Bullsharks fell just short of the Gulf Coast Sharks by a score of 2-1 on Wednesday. The Bullsharks were given a dose of their own medicine in this game as the Sharks apparently hadn't forgotten their loss the last time these teams played back in February of 2024.
Jhon Rodriguez was a force to be reckoned with on the mound despite the final result: he struck out 13 batters over six innings while giving up just one earned (and one unearned) run off two hits. He has been nothing but reliable: he hasn't given up more than two walks in seven consecutive appearances.
At the plate, Bonita Springs saw three different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Derek Hernandez Jr, who went 2-for-3 with one RBI.
