While Maize might've come up empty on Friday, Gavin Short wasn't going down without a fight. Short struck out eight batters over five innings while giving up just one earned (and two unearned) runs off two hits. The performance marked the fewest hits he has had since back in April of 2024.
Even though Short couldn't lead Maize over Hutchinson, he won't have to wait long to try again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Sadly, Short's big day wasn't enough to stop the loss, which snapped the Eagles' six-game streak of wins on the road. With the streak broken, Short and the Eagles surely have a bit of extra motivation heading into Friday's match. Check back here after the action for a full breakdown and analysis of the contest.
