Nobody could stop Noah Thompson on Wednesday as he tossed seven innings while giving up just one earned (and eight unearned) runs off ten hits. As if that's not impressive enough, the pitching appearance was his third in a row with less than one earned run. For the year, he has an ERA of .33 over 21 innings pitched.
Even though Thompson couldn't lead Essex over Rappahannock, he won't have to wait long to try again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 5:00 p.m. on Thursday. The Trojans will be headed into this one with a sizable disadvantage in the rankings (they're ranked 84 places lower in Virginia), but they're not letting that get them down. Will they be able to pull off an upset behind Thompson? Check MaxPreps after the action for a full breakdown of the game and more baseball content.
