It's Friday and a big night at the Yard. The current # 1 seed in the OVL standings, the Hoppers, are coming into town for a showdown with the Railroaders. The Hoppers have a record of 11-4 and the Railroaders in the rear at 5-11. Both teams have faced each other 4 times so far and each has 2 wins against the other, 2-2. Also interesting; both teams have lost their two head-to-head games at home. Remember our opening season game (June 1) at home and the 11-9 loss? That following Wednesday (June 6) in Hoptown, we beat them down with a 18-4 win. Then last Saturday (June 16) in Hoptown we beat them 4-2 only to have them return to our Yard the following night on a Sunday and squeak by us 3-2.
A final thought to consider for tonight; the Hoppers only have 4 losses. The Railroaders account for 2 of those losses and the Bobcats (# 2 in the standings) have the other two. Our guys play them touch, so tonight's game should be a good one! See you at the Yard or on TeamLine!
