If McFarland was riding high fresh off their 12-1 takedown of Frazier Mountain last Tuesday, their most recent game may have dampened their spirits a bit. The Cougars took a 7-2 hit to the loss column at the hands of the Chavez Titans on Tuesday. The result was an unpleasant reminder to the Cougars of the 15-1 loss they experienced in the pair's previous head-to-head fixture back in April of 2024.
Eric Perez made the most of his time at bat despite the final result and went 2-for-3 with one stolen base, one run, and one RBI.
McFarland has also been struggling recently as they've lost three of their last four contests. That's put a noticeable dent in their 7-9-1 record this season. That patch can't be blamed on the team's hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 6.5 runs over those games. As for Chavez, the victory (which was their sixth in a row) raised their record to 15-4.
While McFarland had to take the loss, they won't have to wait long to give it another shot: the pair's next game is a rematch scheduled at 4:00 p.m. on Thursday.
