The Heritage Patriots will venture away from home to face off against the Churubusco Eagles at 6:00 p.m. on Monday. Heritage is strutting in with some hitting muscle as they've averaged 8.3 runs per game this season.
Columbia City hit Heritage with a five-run first inning on Saturday, which goes a long way in explaining the final result. The Patriots took a 9-6 hit to the loss column at the hands of the Eagles.
Cameron Rauner was cooking despite his team's loss, getting on base in three of his four plate appearances with one stolen base, two RBI, and one run. The team also got some help courtesy of Lucas Taylor, who went 2-for-3 with one run, one double, and one RBI.
Meanwhile, Saturday just wasn't the day for Churubusco's offense. They came up short against Fort Wayne Blackhawk Christian on Saturday, falling 13-0. Having soared to a lofty 15 runs in the game before, the Eagles' shutout was a dramatic turnaround.
Heritage's loss dropped their record down to 12-3. As for Churubusco, their defeat was their third straight at home, which dropped their record down to 5-12.
The pitchers for both teams better look sharp on Monday as neither team is afraid to steal. Heritage has been swiping bases left and right this season, having averaged 2.9 stolen bases per game. However, it's not like Churubusco struggles in that department as they've been averaging 2.9 stolen bases. The only question left is which team can snag more.
Everything went Heritage's way against Churubusco in their previous meeting back in May of 2024, as Heritage made off with an 11-0 win. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Patriots since the team won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
