The Oceanside Pirates will look to take advantage of their home pitch for the first time this season as they take on the Loyola Cubs at 11:00 a.m. on Saturday. Neither team made it on the board the last time they hit the pitch, so they've probably got a bit of extra motivation.
On Tuesday, Oceanside and Granite Hills finished up on equal footing with a 1-1 draw.
Meanwhile, while it was all tied up 1-1 at halftime, Loyola was not quite St. Augustine's equal in the second half on Thursday. They took a 3-1 hit to the loss column at the hands of the Saints. The loss put an end to Loyola's undefeated start to the season.
Having lost for the first time this season, Loyola fell to 2-1-1. Oceanside's draw makes their record 0-0-2 this season.
Oceanside couldn't quite get it done against Loyola in their previous meeting back in December of 2022 as they fell 2-0. Can the Pirates avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
