Rudder was not able to break out of their rough patch on Saturday as the team picked up their third straight loss. They came up short against Varsity Opponent, falling 14-7.
Javier Marez made the most of his time in the batter's box despite the final result and went 2-for-4 with three RBI, one triple, and one run. Another player making a difference was Jose Ponce, who got on base in three of his four plate appearances with two stolen bases and one run.
Rudder's defeat dropped their record down to 9-16.
Coming up, Rudder is taking a road trip to challenge Brenham at 7:00 p.m. on Tuesday. The Cubs' pitching crew has only allowed 3.5 runs per game this season, so the Rangers' hitters will have their work cut out for them. Varsity Opponent has already played their next contest (against Winchendon), but no score has been uploaded at the time of writing.
