The Pilots look to win their third straight game tonight, facing the Martinsville Mustangs on the road. In their six matchups, the Pilots have won five.
Brian Ereu (Univ. of Science and Art) will be on the mound for the Pilots tonight, making his team-leading tenth start of the season. He will look to cool down a red-hot Mustangs lineup.
Last night, the Mustangs and Chili Peppers played in one of the highest-scoring games of the whole CPL season, with Tri-City taking a 20-14 win.
In their last game, the Pilots blew out the Wilson Tobs by a score of 11-1. It was a team effort from the hitting side, as three players had two or more RBIs. Chris Martinez (Univ. of Science and Art) hit a solo home run in the fifth inning, his ninth of the year and third in his last four games.
Newcomer Brayden Caskey (Arkansas State) had a great game in his debut, going 2-3 with a run scored and two stolen bases.
The Pilots look to keep their winning streak going tonight at 7 PM.
