Richton is 2-8 against Mize since April of 2016 but they'll have a chance to close the gap a little bit on Thursday. The Richton Rebels will be playing in front of their home fans against the Mize Bulldogs at 6:00 p.m.
Richton kicked off their season on the road on Tuesday and hit a couple of potholes. They fell victim to a rough 12-0 loss at the hands of Mize.
For Mize's part, they got a great performance from Ella Gordon as she kept things locked down with no earned runs or hits while striking out six over five innings pitched.
On the hitting side, Laney Little was a standout: she went 2-for-4 with a home run, four RBI, and two runs. Alevia Martin was another key contributor, scoring two runs and stealing two bases while going 2-for-4.
Richton might still be hurting after the 12-0 defeat they got from Mize in their previous meeting on Tuesday. A big factor in that loss was the dominant performance of Mize's Marissa Reyes, who went 2-for-2 with two runs, a triple, and two RBI. Now that Richton knows the damage she can cause, will they be able to stop her this time? There's only one way to find out.
