East has won four straight games at home, while Sutherland has won four straight on the road, but those streaks won't matter much on Wednesday. The Eagles will welcome the Knights at 5:00 p.m. The two teams have allowed few runs on average (East 4, Sutherland 3.6) so any runs scored will be well earned.
On Tuesday, East sure made it a nail-biter, but they managed to escape with a 6-5 win over Red Jacket.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Sutherland). They never let Mendon get on the board and left with a 13-0 victory on Saturday. The team's explosion at the plate also rewarded the Knights with their most commanding win of the season.
East is on a roll lately: they've won seven of their last nine matches. That's provided a nice bump to their 12-4 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 3.7 runs on average over those games. As for Sutherland, their victory bumped their record up to 12-5.
East might still be hurting after the 10-0 defeat they got from Sutherland in their previous meeting back in May of 2019. Can the Eagles avenge their loss or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
