The Eastern Warriors will head out on the road to face off against the Fayetteville-Perry Rockets at 5:00 p.m. on Wednesday. Eastern will be strutting in after a victory while Fayetteville-Perry will be coming in after a loss.
Eastern had to travel to play their first game of the season, but the final result was worth the trip. Everything went their way against Felicity-Franklin back in March as Eastern made off with a 19-2 win.
Meanwhile, Fayetteville-Perry was not able to break out of their rough patch on Tuesday as the team picked up their third straight defeat. They took an 8-3 hit to the loss column at the hands of Fairfield.
Fayetteville-Perry saw five different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Braedyn Crone, who scored two runs and stole two bases while going 2-for-3. Another player making a difference was Blake Rugenstein, who scored a run and stole two bases while going 1-for-3.
Eastern skirted past Fayetteville-Perry 2-1 when the teams last played back in March of 2023. One of the biggest obstacles trying to stand in the way of that victory was Fayetteville-Perry's Austin Snider, who struck out six batters over 6.2 innings while giving up just one earned (and one unearned) run off six hits. Now that he won't be playing on Wednesday, will it be that much easier for Eastern to walk away with another win? Check MaxPreps.com after the match to find out.
