Hillsdale gave their fans exactly what they wanted out of a home opener on Monday. They came out on top in a nail-biter against the West Holmes Knights and snuck past 10-9. That result was just more of the same for these two, as Hillsdale also won the last time the pair played back in April of 2022.
Kael Lewis was a major factor while hitting and pitching. On the mound, he pitched two innings while giving up just one earned run but no hits (he also didn't allow any walks). Lewis was also big at the plate, scoring a run and stealing a base while going 3-for-4.
In other batting news, the team relied heavily on Gavin Casdorph, who scored a run while going 2-for-4. Owen Hoffman was another key contributor, scoring a run while getting on base in three of his four plate appearances.
Hillsdale didn't take long to hit the field again: they've already played their next contest, a 15-5 victory vs. Smithville on the 26th. West Holmes has also already played their next matchup, a 10-3 win against Mansfield Senior on the 27th.
