Escambia County hasn't had much luck against W.S. Neal recently, but that could start to change on Thursday. The Blue Devils will face off against the Eagles at 6:30 p.m.
Escambia County can't be too happy about their upcoming road contest considering what happened when they opened their season away from home last Tuesday. They lost 15-0 to Baldwin County.
Meanwhile, W.S. Neal hadn't done well against T.R. Miller recently (they were 2-7 in their previous nine matchups), but they didn't let the past get in their way on Monday. The Eagles had just enough and edged out the Tigers 5-4.
The team relied heavily on Eli Stone, who went 1-for-2 with two stolen bases, one run, and one RBI. Stone is crushing it when it comes to stolen bases: he's snagged at least one every time he's taken the field this season. Another player making a difference was JW Pettis, who went 2-for-3 with three RBI and one double.
Escambia County might still be hurting after the 14-4 defeat they got from W.S. Neal in their previous meeting back in March of 2025. Can the Blue Devils avenge their loss or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
