Thursday's game might come down to which pitcher can control the ball better. Grant has hit smart this season, having averaged an OBP of .464. However, it's not like Antelope struggles in that department as they've averaged .438. With both teams so capable at the plate, fans should be ready for an impressive hitting performance.
Grant might still be hurting after the 21-1 loss they got from Antelope in their previous meeting on April 1st. Can the Pacers avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
