On Monday, Sasakwa made easy work of Springer and carried off a 13-5 win.
Sasakwa let Ayden Livesay and Micah Wheeler run wild. Livesay went 1-for-2 with one home run, three RBI, and two runs, while Wheeler scored a run and stole three bases while getting on base in all three of his plate appearances. That's the most stolen bases Wheeler has posted since back in March of 2024. Tre Walker also deserves some recognition as he scored his first runs of the season.

Meanwhile, Strother came up short against Stroud on Monday, falling 10-2. The Yellowjackets have now taken an 'L' in back-to-back games.
Sasakwa has been performing well recently as they've won six of their last eight matches. That's provided a nice bump to their 7-4 record this season. The victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 7.9 runs over those games. Strother's loss dropped their record down to 2-9.
Sasakwa was able to grind out a solid win over Strother in their previous matchup on March 6th, winning 11-8. The rematch might be a little tougher for Sasakwa since the squad won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
