If the Blackhawks were looking for revenge after losing 14-9 to the Captains when the teams met back in April of 2024, then they'll just have to keep looking.
As for Kettering, they are on a roll lately: they've won six of their last eight contests. That's provided a massive bump to their 15-13 record this season. Those victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 8.1 runs over those games.
For Kettering's part, CHASE NANNINI spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: he surrendered just two earned runs on four hits and racked up nine Ks.
On the hitting side, Kettering saw seven different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was WYATT BAUMGRAS, who went 2-for-3 with one double. Those two hits gave BAUMGRAS a new career-high.
