Goodrich has gone 8-2 against Owosso recently and they'll look to pad the win column further on Thursday. The Martians will head out to challenge the Trojans at 4:00 p.m. Goodrich is strutting in with some hitting muscle as they've averaged 6.8 runs per game this season.
Goodrich fought the good fight in their extra-innings match against Lake Fenton on Monday but wound up with a less-than-desirable result. They fell just short of the Blue Devils by a score of 8-7. The Martians' defeat signaled the end of their six-game winning streak.
Abby Stefanski spent all eight innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered three earned (and four unearned) runs on 13 hits. She has been consistent: she hasn't given up more than two walks in five consecutive appearances.
At the plate, Sophie Swanson and Jayden Gohs stepped up to the plate in a big way. Swanson went 3-for-5 with four RBI and one run, while Gohs got on base in all five of her plate appearances with two runs and one RBI. The team also got some help courtesy of Alisyn Raether, who went 2-for-5 with two runs and one RBI.
Meanwhile, Owosso entered their game against Clio on Monday without any home losses, but there's a first time for everything. The Trojans took a 3-0 hit to the loss column at the hands of the Mustangs. The contest marked the first time this season in which the Trojans were not able to get on the board.
Owosso also let their pitcher toss all seven innings and she was also dialed-in: Hailie Caswell gave up only one earned (and two unearned) runs on three hits and racked up eight Ks.
The loss was their first at home , dropping their record down to 8-3. As for Goodrich, their defeat dropped their record down to 11-2.
Thursday's matchup will be a test for both teams' pitchers. Goodrich hasn't had any issues making contact this season, having earned a batting average of .345. However, it's not like Owosso struggles in that department as they've averaged .326. With both teams so capable at the plate, fans should be ready for an impressive hitting performance.
Everything went Goodrich's way against Owosso when the teams last played back in May of 2024, as Goodrich made off with a 15-2 victory. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Martians since the squad won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
