The Citronelle Wildcats will be defending their home field for the first time this season when they go up against the Excel Panthers at 11:00 a.m. on Saturday. Neither Citronelle nor Excel posted many runs in their last games, so it might be the pitching crews that decide this one.
Citronelle is headed into their home opener looking to turn things around after starting their season on the road. They fell 5-2 to Greene County on Thursday. Sadly, the loss continues a streak the team started last season, making it seven in a row.
Citronelle saw three different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was James Reid, who went 3-for-4 with two stolen bases, one triple, and one run.
Meanwhile, Excel was not able to break out of their rough patch on Friday as the team picked up their fourth straight defeat dating back to last season. They lost 11-1 to W.S. Neal.
