The Brush Beetdiggers will face off against the Alamosa Mean Moose at 10:00 a.m. on Saturday. Brush will be strutting in after a victory while Alamosa will be coming in after a defeat.
Brush took care of business in their home opener last Monday (and then some). They were the clear victor by a 14-4 margin over Fort Morgan.
Kaleb Jimenez made a big impact while hitting and pitching. He looked comfortable on the mound, tossing 3.2 innings while giving up just one earned (and two unearned) runs off two hits. Jimenez was also stellar in the batter's box, firing off two home runs and four RBI while going 2-for-2.
In other batting news, the team relied heavily on Landon Mesch, who scored two runs while going 2-for-4. Ben Mettlen was another key contributor, scoring two runs and stealing a base while going 1-for-3.
Meanwhile, sadly, Alamosa is still looking for their first win of the season after four matches. They fell 15-12 to Pueblo Centennial on Tuesday. Both teams can probably skip cardio this week after making that many trips around the bases.
Brush couldn't quite finish off Alamosa in their previous meeting back in March of 2023 and fell 5-3. Thankfully for Brush, Kade Jones (who struck out ten batters over seven innings while giving up just one earned (and two unearned) runs off four hits) won't be suiting up this time. Will that be enough to change the final result? Check MaxPreps.com after the match to find out.
