The East Clinton Astros will hit the road to start this year's campaign against the Wilmington Hurricane. First pitch is scheduled at 4:30 p.m. on Friday.
Wilmington had already won two in a row (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 16.5 runs), and they went ahead and made it three on Wednesday. They walked away with a 7-3 victory over the Bulldogs.
Wilmington pushed their record up to 3-0 with that win, which was their third straight on the road. As for East Clinton, they've got a clean slate. Last season, they finished on the wrong side of .500 (8-14), but they'll be hoping to turn things around this year.
East Clinton skirted past Wilmington 4-3 when the teams last played back in April of 2023. The rematch might be a little tougher for East Clinton since the team won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
