The Eastside Spartans will head out on the road to take on the Tazewell Bulldogs at 5:00 p.m. on Thursday. The last three games Eastside has played have been within two runs, so don't be surprised if it's a close one.
On Wednesday, Eastside beat Richlands by the very same score they won with in their prior game: 2-1.
Haley Day was excellent, scoring two runs while going 2-for-3.
Meanwhile, neither Tazewell nor Patrick Henry made it onto the board last Wednesday thanks to some airtight pitching. Tazewell and Patrick Henry finished up their game with a 0-0 draw.
Eastside's victory bumped their record up to 4-0. Tazewell's draw gives them a new season record of 0-1-1.
Everything went Eastside's way against Tazewell in their previous meeting two weeks ago as Eastside made off with an 11-0 win. The rematch might be a little tougher for Eastside since the squad won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
