The Morrisania Lions will challenge the Gompers Panthers at 4:00 p.m. on Monday. The two teams are strolling into their contests after big wins in their previous games.
Morrisania barely beat Eagle Academy the last time the pair played, but that sure wasn't the case this time around. The Lions were the clear victors by an 18-2 margin over the Eagles on Friday. 18 seems to be a good number for the Lions as the squad scooped up a victory with the same number of runs in their previous game.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Gompers). They were the clear victors by a 10-2 margin over South Bronx Prep on Tuesday. The Panthers not only won on Tuesday, but they posted their biggest win since May 1, 2024 (when they won 10-0).
Morrisania has been performing well recently as they've won three of their last four games. That's provided a nice bump to their 4-2 record this season. Those wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 4.0 runs on average over those games. Gompers' first victory this season bumped their record up to 1-4.
Morrisania took their win against Gompers in their previous meeting back in March by a conclusive 19-4 score. Do the Lions have another victory up their sleeve, or will the Panthers turn the tables on them? We'll have the answer soon enough.
