The Tuscola Warriors will challenge the Sullivan Redskins at 10:00 a.m. on Saturday. The teams are rolling into the game with opposing streaks: Tuscola has struggled recently with four defeats in a row, while Sullivan will arrive with three straight victories.
Tuscola's last matchup with Shelbyville could've gone either way, but unfortunately the same can't be said for the pair's game on Wednesday. The Warriors lost 15-1 to the Rams.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Sullivan). They blew past Blue Ridge 23-1 on Friday. Perhaps unsurprisingly given the team's high-flying offense, the game also marked the team's biggest win of the season.
Christian Ogle made a splash while hitting and pitching. He tossed two innings while giving up just one earned run off two hits. The dominant performance also gave him a new career-high in strikeouts (five). He was also big at the plate, going a perfect 1-for-1 with two RBI.
In other batting news, the team relied heavily on Caden Saul, who went a perfect 3-for-3 with three runs and four RBI. Those four RBI gave him a new career-high. Another player making a difference was Zaden Hussong, who went a perfect 2-for-2 with three RBI and two runs.
Sullivan kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 15 hits. That's a new trend for them: they were averaging 5.3 hits per game earlier this season, but in their last 15 matches they've averaged 9.6.
Sullivan pushed their record up to 5-12 with the victory, which was their third straight on the road. The road wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 3.7 runs on average over those games. As for Tuscola, their loss dropped their record down to 6-14.
Tuscola might still be hurting after the 11-1 defeat they got from Sullivan in their previous matchup back in April of 2024. Will the Warriors have more luck at home instead of on the road? Come back here after the game to get an analysis of the match and other baseball content.
