The McKinley Red Dragons are taking a road trip to challenge the McDonald Blue Devils at 5:00 p.m. on Wednesday. Neither McKinley nor McDonald posted many runs in their last games, so it might be the pitching crews that decide this one.
East hit McKinley with a five-run second inning on Tuesday, which goes a long way in explaining the final result. The Red Dragons might be feeling deja-vu: they lost 7-2 to East, which was the same score (and result) they got the week prior. The Red Dragons have now taken an 'L' in back-to-back games.
Meanwhile, Tuesday just wasn't the day for McDonald's offense. They took a 3-0 hit to the loss column at the hands of Waterloo on Tuesday. The contest marked the first time this season in which the Blue Devils were not able to get on the board.
McKinley's loss dropped their record down to 4-9. As for McDonald, they are on a three-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 4-6.
McKinley was able to grind out a solid victory over McDonald in their previous meeting on April 4th, winning 8-3. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Red Dragons since the team won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
