Leslie extended their losing streak to six on Monday, dropping their season record down to 7-11 in the process. They took a 10-7 hit to the loss column at the hands of the Homer Trojans. The Blackhawks were given a dose of their own medicine in this game as the Trojans apparently hadn't forgotten their defeat the last time these teams played back in May of 2024.
As for Homer, they have been performing well recently as they've won ten of their last 12 contests. That's provided a nice bump to their 14-4 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 10.8 runs over those games.
For Homer's part, Lani Miller and Brooklen Minix did most of the damage at the plate: Miller went a perfect 2-for-2 with five RBI, one run, and one double, while Minix went 1-for-4 with two stolen bases, three runs, and one triple. That's the most RBI Miller has posted since back in April. Another player making a difference was Leyla Bunker, who got on base in two of her three plate appearances with three runs and one stolen base.
Coincidentally, Leslie and Homer will both be playing Grass Lake the next time they take the field. The Trojans will host the Warriors at 4:00 p.m. on Wednesday, while the Blackhawks will head out to face them at 4:00 p.m. on Friday.
