The Sound Christian Lions will head out on the road to challenge the Muckleshoot Tribal Kings at 4:00 p.m. on Thursday. Both teams took a loss in their last game, so they'll have plenty of motivation to get the 'W'.
Sound Christian had to start their season on the road on Saturday, and it wasn't the start they were hoping for. They fell just short of Orcas Island by a score of 5-4.
Kellen Weedon was huge no matter where he played even without the win. He looked comfortable on the mound, pitching three innings while giving up no earned runs off two hits (he also didn't allow any walks). Weedon was also big at the plate, getting on base in all four of his plate appearances with an RBI.
Weedon wasn't the only one making solid contact as three players wound up with at least one hit. One of them was Ibuki Kodama, who went 1-for-3 with two stolen bases.
Meanwhile, Muckleshoot Tribal was not able to break out of their rough patch on Monday as the team picked up their fifth straight defeat. They suffered a rough 12-2 loss at the hands of Oakville.
Everything went Sound Christian's way against Muckleshoot Tribal when the teams last played back in March of 2023 as Sound Christian made off with a 10-0 victory. The rematch might be a little tougher for Sound Christian since the team won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
