The Western Panthers are taking a road trip to challenge the Homer Trojans at 4:00 p.m. on Wednesday. Keep an eye on the score for this one: the two teams posted some lofty run totals in their previous games.
Western had to skate by with only a two-run margin when they last took the field, which might have inspired the 16-run drubbing they dealt Charlotte two weeks ago. The Panthers never let the Orioles get on the board and left with a 16-0 victory.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Homer). They blew past East Jackson 17-6 on Monday. With that win, Homer brought their scoring average up to 6.7 runs per game.
Lani Miller was a standout: she fired off two home runs, four runs, and five RBI while getting on base in all four of her plate appearances. Riley Butler was another key player, scoring four runs and stealing a base while going 3-for-4.
Homer was getting hits left and right and finished the game having posted a batting average of .406. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as East Jackson only posted a batting average of .263.
Western's record is now 2-0. As for Homer, their record now sits at 4-2.
