Thunder Ridge had to hit the road for their first game and it wasn't the result they were hoping for. They fell just short of the Blackfoot Broncos by a score of 9-8 on Wednesday. Sadly, the loss continues a streak the team started last season, making it six in a row.
Easton Carling made the most of his time at bat despite the final result and went 2-for-3 with one home run, three RBI, and two runs. Braedyn Pike was another key player, going 1-for-4 with one home run, three RBI, and two runs.
Carling wasn't the only one working in the home run department: Thunder Ridge lost a few balls and finished the game with two home runs. That's the most home runs they've posted since back in April of 2024.
The teams didn't have to wait long for a rematch: Blackfoot beat Thunder Ridge by a score of 17-4 later that day.
