Calvary Chapel is preparing for their first league matchup of the season on Friday. They will host the Tustin Tillers at 4:00 p.m. The two teams have allowed few runs on average, (Calvary Chapel: 3.9, Tustin: 1.8) so any runs scored will be well earned.
While Calvary Chapel's victory against Orange wasn't quite the blowout it was the last time the pair played, they still came out on top. Calvary Chapel never let Orange get on the board and left with a 2-0 win on Tuesday. For those keeping track at home, that's the closest victory the Eagles have posted against the Panthers since May 24, 2021.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Tustin). They put the hurt on Buena Park with a sharp 7-0 win on Tuesday. The Tillers not only won on Tuesday, but they posted their biggest win since April 19, 2024.
Tustin got a great performance from Jeffery Nesmith as he didn't allow a single earned run over six innings pitched.
At the plate, Tustin saw eight different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Adam Whyte, who scored two runs and stole a base while going 3-for-4. Those runs marked the first that Whyte scored this season. Nyte Teeter was another, scoring a run while going 1-for-2.
Tustin kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 11 hits. That's the most hits they've managed all season.
Calvary Chapel is on a roll lately: they've won four of their last five matches. That's provided a nice bump to their 5-3 record this season. Those victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 7.8 runs over those games. Tustin's victory bumped their record up to 2-3.
Calvary Chapel suffered a grim 9-2 defeat to Tustin in their previous matchup back in February of 2024. Will Calvary Chapel 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.
