The Pocatello Thunder will head out to take on the Borah Lions at 1:00 p.m. on Friday. Pocatello is strutting in with some hitting muscle as they've averaged 11 runs per game this season.
Pocatello lost a heartbreaker the last time they played Meridian, but it's fair to say they got their revenge given the result of Thursday's matchup. The Thunder blew past the Warriors 10-2 on Thursday. The victory made it back-to-back wins for the Thunder.
Carson Allen tossed a big game, not allowing a single earned run and allowing only two hits over 4.2 innings pitched.
On the hitting side, Pocatello let Gentry MacRory and Quinn MacRory run wild. Gentry got on base in three of his four plate appearances with two stolen bases, three runs, and one double, while Quinn went 2-for-5 with two stolen bases, two runs, and one double. Those two stolen bases gave Gentry a new career-high. Huston Himmerich also deserves some recognition as he brought in his first RBI of the season.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Borah). They skirted past Century 20-19. For those keeping track at home, that's the closest victory the Lions have posted since March 22, 2025.
Pocatello's record is now 2-3. As for Borah, their record now sits at 2-4.
The pitchers for both teams better look sharp on Friday as neither team is afraid to steal. Pocatello has been swiping bases left and right this season, having averaged 4.2 stolen bases per game. However, it's not like Borah struggles in that department as they've been averaging an even more impressive 3.7 stolen bases. The only question left is which team can snag more.
