Mayfield's loss dropped their record down to 1-7. As for Corinth, their defeat dropped their record down to 4-7.
The pitchers for both teams better look sharp on Saturday as neither team is afraid to steal. Corinth has been swiping bases left and right this season, having averaged 3.6 stolen bases per game. However, it's not like Mayfield struggles in that department as they've been averaging 6.4 stolen bases. The only question left is which team can snag more.
Corinth came out on top in a nail-biter against Mayfield in their previous meeting back in April of 2024, sneaking past 10-9. Do the Riverhawks have another victory up their sleeve, or will the Panthers turn the tables on them? We'll have the answer soon enough.
