The Quincy Orioles are taking a road trip to challenge the Stockbridge Panthers at 3:45 p.m. on Tuesday. Quincy's hitters haven't had much luck over their past three contests, but Tuesday's matchup will give them a chance to turn things around.
On Monday, Quincy didn't have quite enough to beat Sand Creek and fell 2-1.
Quincy saw four different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Miley Poindexter, who went 2-for-3 with one stolen base and one double. That double marked the first that Poindexter has hit this season.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Stockbridge). Everything went their way against Lake City on Saturday as they made off with a 24-11 win. The result was nothing new for the Panthers, who have now won three games by six runs or more so far this season.
The victory made it two in a row for Stockbridge and bumps their season record up to 4-1. The wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 21.5 runs over those games. As for Quincy, their defeat dropped their record down to 2-4.
Quincy might still be hurting after the 14-0 loss they got from Stockbridge in their previous meeting back in May of 2019. Can the Orioles avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
