The Alameda Hornets will challenge the Antioch Panthers at 3:30 p.m. on Thursday. Neither Alameda nor Antioch posted many runs in their last games, so it might be the pitching crews that decide this one.
Alameda is looking to give their home crowd another W after opening their season at home on Saturday. They won by a run and slipped past Maria Carrillo 2-1. For those keeping track at home, that's the closest victory the Hornets have posted since March 22, 2025.
Alameda gave Carter Grant the start and clearly made the right call: he struck out seven batters over six innings while giving up just one earned run off one hit (and only one walk).
At the plate, Alameda saw five different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Bryson Edwards, who went 2-for-3 with one run.
Meanwhile, Antioch had to hit the road for their first game and it wasn't the result they were hoping for. They fell just short of Mountain House by a score of 4-2 on Tuesday. Sadly, the defeat continues a streak the team started last season, making it five in a row.
Alameda was able to grind out a solid win over Antioch in their previous meeting back in February of 2025, winning 6-1. Will the Hornets repeat their success, or do the Panthers have a new game plan this time around? We'll find out soon enough.
