The Westfield Shamrocks will head out to challenge the Carmel Greyhounds at 6:00 p.m. on Monday. Westfield is strutting in with some hitting muscle as they've averaged 9.3 runs per game this season.
Carmel will be up against a hot Westfield squad: the team just extended their winning streak to three. The Shamrocks walked away with a 9-5 win over Brownsburg on Friday.
Luke Collinsworth tossed a big game, not allowing a single earned run and allowing only two hits while striking out 12 over six innings pitched. He has been consistent recently: he hasn't given up more than two walks in three consecutive appearances.
At the plate, Lincoln Hoffman was excellent, getting on base in three of his four plate appearances with two RBI and one run. Nick Fero also deserves some recognition as he hit his first triple of the season.
Meanwhile, Carmel hadn't done well against Trinity recently (they were 0-5 in their previous five matchups), but they didn't let the past get in their way on Saturday. The Greyhounds' pitchers stepped up to hand the Shamrocks an 8-0 shutout. The Greyhounds might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won four matches by seven runs or more this season.
Westfield's victory was their ninth straight at home dating back to last season, which pushed their record up to 9-1. Those home wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 1.9 runs on average over those games. As for Carmel, they now have a winning record of 5-4.
Both Westfield and Carmel just can't seem to miss. The Shamrocks have been making plenty of contact this season, having averaged 9 hits per game. However, it's not like Carmel struggles in that department as they've been averaging only 5.2 hits. With both teams so capable at the plate, fans should be ready for an impressive hitting performance.
Westfield skirted past Carmel 9-8 in their previous meeting back in May of 2024. Will the Shamrocks repeat their success, or do the Greyhounds have a new game plan this time around? We'll find out soon enough.
