Middletown came up short on Wednesday despite Rudy Cherry delivering his best game to date. Monroe-Woodbury had no answer to Cherry as he didn't allow a single earned run while striking out 11 over six innings pitched. Cherry has been nothing but reliable on the mound: he hasn't given up more than two walks in three consecutive pitching appearances.
Even though Cherry couldn't lead Middletown over Monroe-Woodbury, he won't have to wait long to try again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 4:30 p.m. on Friday. Cherry has dominated as far as earned runs are concerned (he's averaged 0.8 per game this season), but he's got his work cut out for him considering Monroe-Woodbury has only allowed 3.4 per game this season.
