The Bennett Clippers will head out on the road to square off against the Delmar Wildcats at 4:00 p.m. on Friday. Expect the scorekeeper to be kept busy: if their previous games are any indication, the two teams will really light up the scoreboard.
Bennett barely beat North Caroline the last time the pair played, but that sure wasn't the case this time around. Bennett put the hurt on North Caroline with a sharp 18-8 victory on Thursday.
Meanwhile, Delmar beat Lake Forest 15-10 on Thursday. The win continues a trend for the Wildcats in their matchups with the Spartans: they've now won three in a row.
Delmar got a massive performance out of Connor Nichols, who scored two runs and stole a base while going 2-for-3. The team also got some help courtesy of Jason Smullen, who scored three runs and stole a base while getting on base in four of his five plate appearances.
Bennett skirted past Delmar 6-5 in their previous meeting back in May of 2024. The rematch might be a little tougher for Bennett since the team won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
