The Asheboro Blue Comets will face off against the Wheatmore Warriors at 6:00 p.m. on Tuesday. Asheboro will be strutting in after a win while Wheatmore will be coming in after a loss.
On Friday, Asheboro beat Trinity 7-3. The victory made it back-to-back wins for the Blue Comets.
Gavin Allen spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: he surrendered just two earned (and one unearned) runs on ten hits.
On the hitting side, Sam Gore was a standout: he got on base in all four of his plate appearances with two stolen bases, one run, and one RBI. That's the most stolen bases he has posted since back in February of 2025. The team also got some help courtesy of Justin Guerrero Diaz, who went 2-for-4 with two stolen bases and one run.
Meanwhile, Wheatmore had to hit the road for their first game and it wasn't the result they were hoping for. They lost 11-1 to Walkertown on Wednesday. Sadly, the defeat continues a streak the team started last season, making it four in a row.
Asheboro skirted past Wheatmore 8-6 in their previous matchup back in April of 2025. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Blue Comets since the team won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
