Meanwhile, Holyoke was not able to break out of their rough patch on Saturday as the team picked up their ninth straight loss dating back to last season. They might be feeling deja-vu: they lost 13-0 to Wray, which was the same score (and result) they got the week prior.

Holyoke's pitching crew has a crucial task ahead of them: Merino has hit smart this season, having averaged an OBP of .481. It's a different story for Holyoke, though, as they've only averaged .272. Will they be able to contain Merino's hitters?
Merino came out on top in a nail-biter against Holyoke in their previous meeting back in April of 2024, sneaking past 11-10. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Rams since the squad won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
