The Colony Knights will head out on the road to square off against the Eagle River Wolves at 6:30 p.m. on Monday. Colony is strutting in with some hitting muscle as they've averaged 6.2 runs per game this season.
Colony is coming in fresh off a high-stakes matchup with another one of Alaska's top teams: Wasilla, who was ranked eighth at the time (Colony was ranked sixth). The Knights lost 16-4 to the Warriors on Thursday. The Knights' loss signaled the end of their five-game winning streak.
Colony saw three different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Chase Carlson, who went a perfect 1-for-1 with one RBI.
Meanwhile, Eagle River got the win against Bartlett on Saturday by a conclusive 9-2. The result was nothing new for the Wolves, who have now won four matches by seven runs or more so far this season.
Eagle River got a massive performance out of Brooks Inch, who went 2-for-4 with two runs, one triple, and two RBI. Those two RBI gave Inch a new career-high. Jack Mullen was another key player, going a perfect 2-for-2 with two runs, one stolen base, and two RBI.
Eagle River has been performing well recently as they've won four of their last five games. That's provided a nice bump to their 8-3-1 record this season. Those wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 2.4 runs on average over those games. As for Colony, their defeat dropped their record down to 6-4.
The pitchers for both teams better look sharp on Monday as neither team is afraid to steal. Colony has been swiping bases left and right this season, having averaged 2.9 stolen bases per game. However, it's not like Eagle River struggles in that department as they've been averaging an even more impressive 3.1 stolen bases. The only question left is which team can snag more.
