The Grand Terrace Titans are taking a road trip to square off against the Carter Lions at 3:45 p.m. on Friday. Both come into the contest bolstered by wins in their previous matches.
Grand Terrace was handed a six-run loss in their previous outing, but that didn't affect their clutch gene on Saturday. They came out on top in a nail-biter against Centennial, sneaking past 3-1.
Meanwhile, Carter hadn't done well against Summit recently (they were 0-5 in their previous five matchups), but they didn't let the past get in their way on Wednesday. The Lions put the hurt on the SkyHawks with a sharp 11-1 victory. The Lions' hitters stepped up their game for this one, as that was the most runs they've scored all season.
Grand Terrace has been performing well recently as they've won nine of their last 11 matchups. That's provided a nice bump to their 11-5 record this season. Those wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 6.5 runs over those games. Carter's first victory this season bumped their record up to 1-7.
Everything went Grand Terrace's way against Carter when the teams last played back in April of 2023, as Grand Terrace made off with an 11-0 win.
