Fort Bragg and Kelseyville are an even 5-5 against one another since April of 2019, but likely not for long. The Timberwolves will be playing in front of their home fans against the Knights at 4:00 p.m. on Friday. The two teams have allowed few runs on average (Fort Bragg 3.7, Kelseyville 3.1) so any runs scored will be well earned.
Fort Bragg is probably headed into the matchup with a chip on their shoulder considering St. Helena just ended the team's four-game winning streak on Tuesday. They fell just short of the Saints by a score of 7-5. For those keeping track at home, that's the closest loss the Timberwolves have suffered since May 8, 2024.
Meanwhile, Kelseyville came tearing into Tuesday's game with six straight wins (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 7.8 runs), and they left with even more momentum. They never let the Eagles get on the board and left with a 12-0 win. The result was nothing new for the Knights, who have now won eight contests by ten runs or more so far this season.
Carson White was a major factor no matter where he played. He didn't allow a single earned run and allowed only one hit while striking out ten over six innings pitched. Those ten strikeouts gave him a new career-high. He was also solid in the batter's box, scoring a run while going 1-for-4.
In other batting news, Brayton Thomas was incredible, scoring two runs and stealing a base while getting on base in all four of his plate appearances. Max Hommer was another key player, scoring two runs and stealing a base while getting on base in two of his four plate appearances.
Kelseyville always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .538. That was just more of the same: they've now posted an OBP of .500 or higher in four consecutive matches.
Kelseyville's victory was their fifth straight on the road, which pushed their record up to 11-2. Those road wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 16.0 runs over those games. As for Fort Bragg, their defeat was their first in the league, dropping their league record down to 4-1 and their overall record down to 10-2.
Fort Bragg couldn't quite finish off Kelseyville in their previous matchup back in May of 2024 and fell 6-4. Can the Timberwolves avenge their loss or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
