For the first time this season, Crane will have a chance to prove themselves in a conference matchup on Saturday. They will face off against the Brownfield Cubs at 12:00 p.m. Both come into the game bolstered by wins in their previous matches.
Crane proved they can win big on Saturday (they won by ten) and on Saturday they proved they can win the close ones too. They had just enough and edged out Christoval 6-5. For those keeping track at home, that's the closest victory the Cranes have posted since March 7, 2024.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Brownfield). They blew past Abernathy 19-5 on Monday. The Cubs might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won four matchups by six runs or more this season.
Crane is on a roll lately: they've won three of their last four contests. That's provided a nice bump to their 5-2 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 3.8 runs on average over those games. Brownfield's win bumped their record up to 6-4.
