The IDEA Monterrey Park College Prep Bears are taking a road trip to face off against the Founders Classical Academy Hoplites at 7:00 p.m. on Tuesday.
IDEA Monterrey Park College Prep is leaving town to face Founders Classical Academy after disappointing their home crowd in their season opener. The Bears took an 8-4 hit to the loss column at the hands of the Hoplites last Tuesday.
For Founders Classical Academy's part, Luke McCaw was a major factor no matter where he played. He struck out six batters over three innings while giving up three earned (and one unearned) runs off only two hits. McCaw was also solid in the batter's box, scoring two runs while going 2-for-3.
In other batting news, the team relied heavily on John Spalding, who scored a run and stole a base while going 2-for-2. Spalding 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 Logan Blumhoff, who scored two runs and stole a base while going 1-for-1.
Founders Classical Academy always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .526. That was just more of the same: they've now posted an OBP of .524 or higher every time they've taken the field this season.
IDEA Monterrey Park College Prep couldn't quite get it done against Founders Classical Academy in their previous meeting last Tuesday as they fell 8-4. Can the Bears avenge their loss or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
