The Kaiser Cats will challenge the Summit SkyHawks at 3:45 p.m. on Friday. The last three games Kaiser has played have been within two runs, so don't be surprised if it's a close one.
Kaiser is probably headed into the matchup with a chip on their shoulder considering Citrus Hill just ended the team's four-game winning streak on Wednesday. They wound up with the same score they had in their last game (3-1), but sadly the team found themselves on the wrong side of the score this time. For those keeping track at home, that's the closest defeat they have suffered since February 17th.
Roman Hernandez was a force to be reckoned with on the mound despite the final result: he pitched five innings while giving up just two earned (and one unearned) runs off six hits.
Meanwhile, Summit came tearing into Tuesday's game with six straight wins (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 5.3 runs), and they left with even more momentum. They came within a single run of losing the streak, but they secured a 3-2 W against the Eagles.
Summit pushed their record up to 10-3 with the victory, which was their third straight at home. As for Kaiser, their loss dropped their record down to 7-4.
Kaiser might still be hurting after the 7-0 defeat they got from Summit in their previous meeting back in April of 2024. Can Kaiser avenge their loss or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
