The Ortonville Trojans will challenge the MACCRAY Wolverines at 4:30 p.m. on Tuesday. Neither Ortonville nor MACCRAY posted many runs in their last games, so it might be the pitching crews that decide this one.
On Thursday, Ortonville didn't have quite enough to beat Yellow Medicine East and fell 2-1. The Trojans haven't had much luck with the Sting recently, as the team has come up short the last four times they've met.
Meanwhile, MACCRAY had already won four in a row (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 4 runs) and they went ahead and made it five on Thursday. They came within a single run of losing the streak, but they secured a 2-1 W against the Jaguars.
Wyatt Swenson spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: he surrendered a run (which was unearned) on three hits and racked up 11 Ks. He also tossed no earned runs, which is notable because MACCRAY is undefeated when he allows at most one earned run, but 3-4 otherwise.
MACCRAY's victory was their third straight at home, which pushed their record up to 6-4. The home wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 3.0 runs on average over those games. As for Ortonville, their loss dropped their record down to 1-4.
Ortonville might still be hurting after the 10-0 defeat they got from MACCRAY in their previous meeting back in May of 2024. Will the Trojans have more luck at home instead of on the road? Check MaxPreps after the match for a full breakdown of the game, commentary, and other baseball content.
