St. Stanislaus is 6-1 against Picayune since March of 2015 and they'll have a chance to extend that dominance on Saturday. The St. Stanislaus Rock-a-Chaws will be defending their home field for the first time this season when they go up against the Picayune Maroon Tide at 1:00 p.m. Both come into the contest bolstered by wins in their previous matches.
Last Thursday, St. Stanislaus earned a 7-3 win over Stone. The victory made it back-to-back wins for the Rock-a-Chaws.
Warren Gunter looked comfortable as he struck out seven batters over four innings while giving up just one earned run off three hits (and only one walk).
At the plate, the team relied heavily on Garren Couey, who scored two runs while going 1-for-3. The dominant performance also gave him a new career-high in RBI (two). Parker Stewart was another key player, scoring a run while going 1-for-2.
Meanwhile, Picayune had to travel to play their first game of the season, but the final result was worth the trip. They were the clear victor by an 11-1 margin over Biloxi on Tuesday.
Picayune got a massive performance out of Mason Bayless, who went 1-for-2 with one home run, two runs, and two RBI. The team also got some help courtesy of Parker Helton, who scored two runs and stole a base while getting on base in all four of his plate appearances.
Picayune always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .531. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Biloxi only posted an OBP of .333.
St. Stanislaus was able to grind out a solid victory over Picayune in their previous meeting back in March of 2023, winning 9-4. Will St. Stanislaus repeat their success, or does Picayune have a new game plan this time around? We'll find out soon enough.
