The Carteret Ramblers are taking a road trip to take on the South River Rams at 10:00 a.m. on Wednesday. The two teams each escaped (but just barely!) with wins against their previous opponents.
Carteret is headed into the game with an undefeated record on the line, something North Plainfield almost spoiled on Monday. The Ramblers came within a single run of losing the streak, but they secured a 2-1 W against the Canucks. Those two runs were actually the fewest the Ramblers have put up all season, but given the result they're probably not too concerned.

Ferreiras has been hot recently, having posted at least one stolen base the last four times he's played. Jayden Luciano also deserves some recognition as he snagged his first stolen base of the season.
