The Wethersfield Eagles will head out on the road to take on the East Hartford Hornets at 3:45 p.m. on Wednesday. Given that the pair suffered a loss in their last game, they both have a little extra motivation heading into this game.
Wethersfield couldn't capitalize on their home-field advantage in their season opener. They wound up on the wrong side of a tough 17-3 walloping at the hands of RHAM on Friday.
Meanwhile, East Hartford suffered a rough 11-4 loss at the hands of Newington on Monday. East Hartford has now taken an 'L' in back-to-back games.
East Hartford saw two different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Izzy Brito, who went 2-for-3 with a home run and three RBI. Brito has been nothing but reliable on the mound: she hasn't pitched less than six innings every time she's pitched this season. The team also got some help courtesy of Kaylee Hernandez, who scored a run and stole three bases.
Wethersfield took their victory against East Hartford in their previous matchup back in May of 2023 by a conclusive 10-2. The rematch might be a little tougher for Wethersfield since the squad won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
