The Green Bobcats will venture away from home to take on the Rock Hill Redmen at 1:00 p.m. on Saturday. Green will be strutting in after a victory while Rock Hill will be coming in after a defeat.
While Bobcats fans will have to keep waiting for their squad to come home, they shouldn't be too worried about the road trip considering the result of Friday's season opener. They walked away with a 9-4 win over Chesapeake on Friday.
Landon Kimbler was a major factor no matter where he played. He kept things locked down with no earned runs or hits while striking out six over five innings pitched. What's more, he gave up only zero hits, the fewest he's had since back in April of 2024. He was also solid in the batter's box, scoring two runs and stealing two bases while going 1-for-3. That's the most stolen bases he has posted since back in April of 2024.
Kimbler wasn't the only one making solid contact as three players wound up with at least one hit. One of them was Jonathan Knapp, who scored two runs and stole a base while going 1-for-3. That's the most runs Knapp has posted since back in April of 2024. Mason Neal was another, scoring a run and stealing a base while going 2-for-3.
Meanwhile, Rock Hill didn't have quite enough to beat Symmes Valley on Friday and fell 2-1.
Green took their victory against Rock Hill in their previous matchup back in March of 2024 by a conclusive 13-2. The rematch might be a little tougher for Green since the team won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
