The Avery Bulldogs and the Wolfe City Wolves will meet in a dog eat dog contest at 9:00 a.m. on Thursday.
Avery came up short against Detroit on Tuesday, falling 13-1. The Bulldogs have now taken an 'L' in back-to-back games.
Meanwhile, Wolfe City hadn't done well against Cumby recently (they were 2-7 in their previous nine matchups), but they didn't let the past get in their way on Tuesday. Wolfe City put the hurt on Cumby with a sharp 13-3 victory. Considering the Wolves have won four matchups by more than six runs this season, Tuesday's blowout was nothing new.
Kyleigh Walker was incredible, scoring three runs while going 3-for-3. The team also got some help courtesy of Joleigh Laverty, who went 3-for-4 with four RBI and one stolen base.
Wolfe City kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 14 hits. That's a new trend for them: they were averaging 5 hits per game earlier this season, but in their last 15 games they've averaged 11.2.
Wolfe City has been performing well recently as they've won five of their last six contests. That's provided a nice bump to their 7-3 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 3.8 runs over those games. Avery's loss dropped their record down to 2-4.
Avery might still be hurting after the 21-2 defeat they got from Wolfe City in their previous meeting back in February of 2024. Will Avery have more luck at home instead of on the road? Check back here after the action for a full breakdown and analysis of the contest.
