Sidney is 6-1 against Fairborn since May of 2017 and they'll have a chance to extend that dominance on Friday. The Yellowjackets are taking a road trip to take on the Skyhawks at 5:00 p.m. Sidney has given up an average of 9.8 runs per game this season, but Friday's game will give them a chance to turn things around.

Fairborn hadn't beaten Piqua on the road since May 3, 2021 but that history sure didn't bother them on Wednesday. The Skyhawks never let the Indians get on the board and left with a 3-0 victory. The win continues a trend for the Skyhawks in their matchups with the Indians: they've now won three in a row.
Piqua's batters probably weren't too happy with Dillon Efaw, who pitched a no hitter and racked up eight Ks (he gave up two walks). Efaw has been nothing but reliable on the mound: he hasn't given up more than two walks in three consecutive appearances.
At the plate, Owen Lauderman was excellent, getting on base in all four of his plate appearances with two runs and one stolen base. He is becoming a predictor of Fairborn's success: when he posts at least two runs the team is undefeated (and 5-9 when he doesn't). Troy Cooper also deserves some recognition as he snagged his first stolen base of the season.
Sidney's loss dropped their record down to 6-11. As for Fairborn, their record now sits at 8-9.
Sidney couldn't quite get it done against Fairborn in their previous meeting back in May of 2025 as they fell 12-8. Can the Yellowjackets avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
