Helix was sadly handed a loss on Tuesday, but Lincoln Wirschem did his best to prevent it. Granite Hills had no answer to Wirschem as he struck out six batters over 5.2 innings while giving up just two earned (and one unearned) runs off six hits (and not a single walk).
Even though Wirschem couldn't lead Helix over Granite Hills, he won't have to wait long to try again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 4:00 p.m. on Thursday. Helix will be headed into this one with a pretty big disadvantage in the rankings (they're ranked 252 places lower in California), but they're not letting that get them down. Will they be able to pull off an upset behind Wirschem? Check back here after the action for a full breakdown and analysis of the contest.
