The Pueblo County Hornets will take on the Skyline Falcons at 4:00 p.m. on Tuesday. Both come into the matchup bolstered by wins in their previous matches.
Pueblo County is looking to give their home crowd another W after opening their season at home on Saturday. They walked away with a 10-5 win over Severance.
Cohen Glenn and Cole Barger were a major factor while hitting and pitching. On the mound, Glenn tossed two innings while giving up just one earned run off three hits. Meanwhile, Barger tossed three innings while giving up just one earned run off two hits. What's more, Glenn posted two strikeouts, the most he's had since back in April of 2024. At the plate, Glenn scored two runs while going 1-for-3, while Barger got on base in three of his four plate appearances with one stolen base, two RBI, and one double.
In other batting news, Blake Swift was incredible, scoring a run while going 2-for-4. Those two hits gave him a new career-high. Another player making a difference was Julian Reyes, who scored two runs while getting on base in three of his four plate appearances.
Meanwhile, Skyline had just enough and edged out Denver East 4-3 on Friday.
Like Pueblo County, Skyline also got a great game from a two-way player: Jack Knapp. He looked comfortable on the mound, striking out ten batters over seven innings while giving up three earned runs off four hits (and only one walk). That's the fewest earned runs Knapp has allowed since back in April of 2024. He was also solid in the batter's box, getting on base in three of his four plate appearances with one RBI.
Knapp wasn't the only one making solid contact as three players wound up with at least one hit. One of them was JD Wright, who scored two runs while going 1-for-3.
