Baseball Recap: Howard Takes a Loss

If Howard was feeling good fresh off their 21-1 takedown of Baldwin last Friday, their most recent game may have dampened their spirits a bit. The Huskies lost 12-3 to the Northeast Raiders on Monday. The result was an unpleasant reminder to the Huskies of the 10-7 loss they experienced in the pair's previous head-to-head fixture back in March of 2025.

Darius Brown was cooking despite his team's loss, going 1-for-3 with two stolen bases, one run, and one double. He is on a roll when it comes to stolen bases, as he's now snagged two or more in each of the last three games he's played. The team also got some help courtesy of Warrick McElroy, who went 1-for-2 with one run and one RBI.

Howard has traveled a rocky road recently, having lost three of their last four matchups. That's put a noticeable dent in their 7-12 record this season. That patch can't be blamed on the team's hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 7.0 runs over those games. As for Northeast, their record now sits at 10-11.

Looking ahead, Howard will venture away from home to challenge Mary Persons at 5:00 p.m. on Thursday. As for Northeast, they will host Dodge County at 4:00 p.m. on Tuesday. The Raiders' pitchers better be ready for this one: the Indians have averaged an impressive 9.6 runs per game this season.
