The Glenpool Warriors will venture away from home to challenge the Berryhill Chiefs at 2:30 p.m. on Thursday. Glenpool has given up an average of 6.7 runs per game this season, but Thursday's game will give them a chance to turn things around.
Glenpool is probably headed into the matchup with a chip on their shoulder considering Bristow just ended the team's three-game winning streak on Tuesday. They came up short against the Pirates, falling 14-1. For those keeping track at home, that's the biggest defeat the Warriors have suffered since March 3rd.
Glenpool saw three different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Denim Sands, who went 1-for-2 with three stolen bases. Those three stolen bases gave Sands a new career-high.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Berryhill). Everything went their way against Fort Gibson on Tuesday as Berryhill made off with a 19-3 victory. Considering the Chiefs have won ten contests by more than five runs this season, Tuesday's blowout was nothing new.
The win made it two in a row for Berryhill and bumps their season record up to 10-3. Those victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered a grand total of 3 runs in those games. As for Glenpool, the loss was their first at home , dropping their record down to 8-5.
Glenpool might still be hurting after the 14-1 defeat they got from Berryhill when the teams last played back in March of 2015. Can Glenpool avenge their loss or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
