For the second straight game, Harker will face off against Jefferson. The Eagles will be playing at home against the Grizzlies at 4:00 p.m. on Thursday. The timing is sure in Harker's favor as the team sits on three straight wins at home while Jefferson has been banged up by 11 consecutive losses on the road dating back to last season.
Harker had to skate by with only a two-run margin when they last took the field, which might have inspired the seven-run drubbing they dealt Jefferson on Tuesday. The Eagles never let the Grizzlies get on the board and left with a 7-0 victory. Considering the Eagles have won seven contests by more than six runs this season, Tuesday's blowout was nothing new.
The result came thanks to Vidwat Shekar's shutout, as he gave up just three hits and racked up seven Ks.
