South Newton was sadly handed a defeat on Tuesday, but Aidan Mattox did his best to prevent it. Mattox struck out seven batters over seven innings while giving up five earned (and six unearned) runs off five hits. The performance marked the fewest earned runs he has had over his last six games.
Even though Mattox couldn't lead South Newton over North Newton, he won't have to wait long to try again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 4:30 p.m. on Thursday. Despite Mattox's best efforts to the contrary, the Rebels will head into their next match having dropped 26 straight matchups dating back to last season. Will Thursday be the turning point?
