After some red-hot attacks at the plate in their last three games, Leon finally came back down to earth on Wednesday. They fell just short of the Bainbridge Bearcats by a score of 1-0. The Lions were given a dose of their own medicine in this game as the Bearcats apparently hadn't forgotten their loss the last time these teams played back in March of 2019.
Hayden McNeill spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: he surrendered a run (which was unearned) on three hits and racked up seven Ks. He has been nothing but reliable: he hasn't given up more than one earned run in ten consecutive appearances.
At the plate, Leon saw three different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Baker Safley, who went 1-for-3 with one double.
