The Pitman Pride will venture away from home to face off against the Central Valley Hawks at 3:30 p.m. on Monday. The two teams each escaped (but just barely!) with wins against their previous opponents.
While Pride fans will have to keep waiting for their team to come home, they shouldn't be too worried about the road trip considering the result of Saturday's season opener. Their pitchers stepped up to hand East Union a 2-0 shutout on Saturday. For those keeping track at home, that's the closest win the Pride have posted since April 2, 2025.
Pitman saw four different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Ben Vilhauer, who went 1-for-2 with one stolen base and one RBI.
Meanwhile, Central Valley had just enough and edged out Laguna Creek 3-1 on Friday.
Pitman was able to grind out a solid victory over Central Valley in their previous meeting back in February of 2025, winning 4-1. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Pride since the squad won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
