The Carter Green Hornets will take on the South-Doyle Cherokees at 5:30 p.m. on Wednesday. Carter is strutting in with some hitting muscle as they've averaged 9.5 runs per game this season.
Carter fought the good fight in their extra-innings contest against Seymour on Tuesday but wound up with a less-than-desirable result. They fell just short of the Eagles by a score of 2-1. The game marked the Green Hornets' lowest-scoring match so far this season.
Luke Burnette spent all eight innings on the mound, and it's clear why: he surrendered just two earned runs on four hits.
Meanwhile, South-Doyle didn't have quite enough to beat Loudon on Tuesday and fell 4-3. The Cherokees haven't had much luck with the Redskins recently, as the team has come up short the last six times they've met.
Hunter Tipton made the most of his time at bat despite the final result and scored a run while going 3-for-3. Those three hits gave him a new career-high. The team also got some help courtesy of Fisher Jacobs, who went 2-for-3 with one stolen base and one RBI.

The pitchers for both teams better look sharp on Wednesday as neither team is afraid to steal. Carter has been swiping bases left and right this season, having averaged 2.7 stolen bases per game. However, it's not like South-Doyle struggles in that department as they've been averaging an even more impressive 2.9 stolen bases. The only question left is which team can snag more.
