The Maplewood Rockets will square off against the Mathews Mustangs at 5:00 p.m. on Tuesday. Maplewood is strutting in with some hitting muscle as they've averaged 7.8 runs per game this season.
Harding hit Maplewood with a four-run third inning on Monday, which goes a long way in explaining the final result. Neither the Rockets nor the Skippers could gain the upper hand so the two teams had to settle for a 4-4 tie.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Mathews). They were the clear victors by an 18-5 margin over Windham on Monday. The high-scoring effort was just what the Mustangs needed considering they were shut out in their previous matchup.
Mathews has been performing well recently as they've won four of their last five games. That's provided a nice bump to their 8-5 record this season. Those victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 9.4 runs over those games. Maplewood's tie makes their record 10-6-1 this season.
Maplewood came up short against Mathews in their previous matchup two weeks ago, falling 7-4. Can the Rockets avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
