For whatever reason, it's the away team that's had the advantage when Warren and Athens meet (five straight games heading into this one) and that held true again on Friday. The Warriors fell just short of the Bulldogs by a score of 3-1. Having soared to a lofty 12 runs in the game before, the Warriors couldn't push the score so high this time.
Warren dropped their record down to 13-14 with the defeat, which was their third straight at home. Those home losses can't be blamed on the team's pitching effort, having only surrendered 2.7 runs on average over those games. As for Athens, the victory made it two in a row for them and bumps their season record up to 16-11.
Looking ahead, Warren will take on Miami Trace in a tournament on Wednesday. The two teams have allowed few runs on average (the Warriors 4, the Panthers 3.5) so any runs scored will be well earned. Athens does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
