The Brookfield Bobcats will head out on the road to challenge the Weston Trojans at 4:15 p.m. on Wednesday. Brookfield knows how to get runs on the board -- the team has finished with ten runs or more in their past four contests -- so hopefully Weston likes a good challenge.
Brookfield came out on top against Bunnell on Monday thanks in part to the team's impressive nine-run third inning. The Bobcats were the clear victors by a 12-0 margin over the Bulldogs. The result was nothing new for the Bobcats, who have now won six matches by seven runs or more so far this season.

Jack Murray was a major factor while hitting and pitching. He didn't allow a single earned run and allowed only one hit over four innings pitched. He has been nothing but reliable on the mound: he hasn't given up more than one earned run in three consecutive appearances. He was also solid in the batter's box, going 1-for-4 with two RBI, one run, and one double. Those two RBI gave him a new career-high.
In other batting news, Connor Jordan and Jack Ponte did most of the damage at the plate: Jordan got on base in all four of his plate appearances with two runs, one stolen base, and two RBI, while Ponte went 2-for-3 with three stolen bases, three RBI, and two runs. Ponte is on a roll when it comes to stolen bases, as he's now snagged at least one in each of the last four games he's played. Matt McDowell was another key player, getting on base in three of his four plate appearances with two stolen bases and two runs.
Brookfield always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .559. That was just more of the same: they've now posted an OBP of .500 or higher in four consecutive games.
The home team had won the previous five meetings between Weston and Immaculate, and Immaculate kept the tradition alive. The Trojans might be feeling deja-vu: they lost 4-3 to the Mustangs, which was the same score (and result) they got the week prior.
Brookfield's record is now 9-1. As for Weston, they now have a losing record of 5-6.
Brookfield skirted past Weston 9-8 in their previous matchup back in May of 2024. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Bobcats since the squad won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
