The Adelanto Saints will challenge the Eastside Lions at 2:30 p.m. on Friday. The two teams each escaped (but just barely!) with wins against their previous opponents.
Adelanto is looking to give their home crowd another W after opening their season at home on Wednesday. They had just enough and edged out Academy for Academic Excellence 4-3.
Ceonie Turner spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered three earned runs on three hits and racked up nine Ks.
At the plate, Adelanto's victory was truly a team effort as nine different players contributed at least one hit. One of them was Alyah Vidana, who scored a run and stole a base while going 1-for-1.
Adelanto was getting hits left and right and finished the game having posted a batting average of .429. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Academy for Academic Excellence only posted a batting average of .083.
Meanwhile, it was close, but on Thursday Eastside sidestepped Burroughs for an 8-7 win.
Adelanto skirted past Eastside 11-9 in their previous meeting back in February of 2024. Will Adelanto repeat their success, or does Eastside have a new game plan this time around? We'll find out soon enough.
