The Sebring Blue Streaks will head out on the road to take on the Lake Wales Highlanders at 7:30 p.m. on Thursday. Sebring's pitching crew has only allowed 2.1 runs per game this season, so Lake Wales' hitters will have their work cut out for them.

Jett DeWitt looked comfortable as he pitched 3.1 innings while giving up no earned runs off four hits. He has been consistent : he hasn't given up a single earned run in six consecutive appearances.
On the hitting side, the team relied heavily on Blayne Humphrey, who went a perfect 3-for-3 with one double and one RBI. That's the most hits he has posted since back in February. Ricky Perez also deserves some recognition as he brought in his first RBI of the season.

Sebring has been performing incredibly well recently as they've won seven of their last eight matches. That's provided a nice bump to their 12-4 record this season. Lake Wales' defeat was their first in the district, dropping their district record down to 2-1 and their overall record down to 9-9.
Sebring was able to grind out a solid win over Lake Wales in their previous meeting back in May of 2024, winning 7-2. The rematch might be a little tougher for Sebring since the team won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
