The Henryville Hornets will head out to challenge the Salem Lions at 5:30 p.m. on Tuesday. The teams are on pretty different trajectories at the moment (Henryville has three straight victories, Salem has four straight defeats), but none of that matters once you're on the field.
Henryville had to skate by with only a one-run margin when they last took the field, which might have inspired the 11-run drubbing they dealt Paoli on Friday. The Hornets never let the Rams get on the board and left with an 11-0 win. The result was nothing new for the Hornets, who have now won five contests by six runs or more so far this season.
