The Mitchell Mustangs will take on the Clearwater Central Catholic Marauders in a tournament on Wednesday. Neither Mitchell nor Clearwater Central Catholic posted many runs in their last games, so it might be the pitching crews that decide this one.
Mitchell can't be too happy about their upcoming road game considering what happened when they opened their season away from home on Monday. They took a 5-1 hit to the loss column at the hands of Palm Harbor University. Sadly, the defeat continues a streak the team started last season, making it five in a row.
Micah Mark was a force to be reckoned with on the mound despite the final result: he struck out seven batters over 4.1 innings while giving up just one earned (and four unearned) runs off three hits.
On the hitting side, Mitchell saw five different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Kaiden Roxby, who went 1-for-2 with one RBI.
Meanwhile, Clearwater Central Catholic fell victim to Countryside and their airtight pitching crew on Monday. They fell just short of the Cougars by a score of 1-0.
