The Immanuel Eagles will venture away from home to face off against the Sierra Chieftains at 3:30 p.m. on Tuesday. Immanuel is strutting in with some hitting muscle as they've averaged 10 runs per game this season.
Sierra will be up against a hot Immanuel team: the squad just extended their winning streak to three. Immanuel walked away with an 8-3 victory over Porterville on Saturday.
Amanda Herrera spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered only one earned (and two unearned) runs on six hits. She has been consistent recently: she hasn't given up more than one earned run in four consecutive appearances.
At the plate, Addison Efird was excellent, scoring a run while going 2-for-4. What's more, she posted two RBI, the most she's had since back in April of 2024. Abigail Thomas was another key player, scoring a run while going 3-for-3.
Immanuel was getting hits left and right and finished the game having posted a batting average of .400. That was just more of the same: they've now posted a batting average of .346 or higher in three consecutive matchups.
Meanwhile, Sierra fell victim to Woodlake and their airtight pitching crew on Friday. They lost 10-0 to the Tigers. The Chieftains have now taken an 'L' in back-to-back games.
Immanuel's win bumped their record up to 4-0-1. As for Sierra, they now have a losing record of 1-2.
Tuesday's contest will be a test for both teams' pitchers. Immanuel hasn't had any issues making contact this season, having earned a batting average of .315. However, it's not like Sierra struggles in that department as they've averaged .392. With both teams so capable at the plate, fans should be ready for an impressive hitting performance.
Immanuel was able to grind out a solid victory over Sierra when the teams last played back in March of 2024, winning 4-1. The rematch might be a little tougher for Immanuel since the team won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
