Meanwhile, Nathan Hale hadn't done well against Chief Sealth recently (they were 2-7 in their previous nine matchups), but they didn't let the past get in their way on Monday. The Raiders narrowly escaped with a win as the team sidled past the Seahawks 4-2. That's two games straight that the Raiders have won by exactly two runs.
The team relied heavily on Kai Drohan, who got on base in all three of his plate appearances with one home run, two runs, and one stolen base. That home run was his first of the season.
Nathan Hale's victory bumped their record up to 9-2. As for Ingraham, their win bumped their record up to 7-4.
Wednesday's matchup might come down to which pitcher can control the ball better. Ingraham has hit smart this season, having averaged an OBP of .433. However, it's not like Nathan Hale struggles in that department as they've averaged .458. With both teams so capable at the plate, fans should be ready for an impressive hitting performance.
Ingraham skirted past Nathan Hale 6-5 when the teams last played back in April of 2025. Will the Rams repeat their success, or do the Raiders have a new game plan this time around? We'll find out soon enough.
