The Pilots are at home to face the Martinsville Mustangs at 7 PM, looking for their sixth straight win. In the season series, the Pilots have had success with a 3-1 record.
Last game, the Pilots were able to outlast the Marlins 5-4 in a back-and-forth battle. A sacrifice fly by Ryan Dooley (James Madison) scored what ended up being the winning run in the bottom of the sixth inning.
Sam Rochard (Tennessee Wesleyan) is pitching tonight for the Pilots, making his fourth start with the team. Rochard started off as a solid bullpen arm, coming in relief in his first four appearances. However, he has made three straight starts for the team. In 23.1 innings pitched, Rochard has a 2.70 ERA with thirty strikeouts.
