Omro extended their losing streak to four on Thursday, dropping their season record down to 5-17 in the process. They were a single run away from ending the streak, but they lost a 2-1 heartbreaker at the hands of the Brillion Lions. If the Foxes were looking for revenge after losing 6-3 to the Lions when the teams met back in May of 2023, then they'll just have to keep looking.
Omro saw three different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Tanner Piper, who went 1-for-3 with one run.
As for Brillion, they have been performing well recently as they've won four of their last five matchups. That's provided a massive bump to their 12-10 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 3.6 runs on average over those games.
On Brillion's side, Joe Shimek spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: he surrendered a run (which was unearned) on three hits and racked up six Ks. Shimek also tossed a walk, which is notable because the Lions are 6-2 when he allows at most two walks, but 6-8 otherwise.
On the hitting side, Hayden Cousin was excellent, going a perfect 2-for-2 with two stolen bases and one RBI. Brillion is undefeated when Cousin posts two or more stolen bases, but 9-10 otherwise.
As of now, neither Omro nor the Lions have any future games scheduled.
