After facing each other in the past three games, the Boston Hunters (1-3) and the New York Heights (2-2) will face off once more before moving on to other opponents later in the week.
The Hunters took the first game of this three game “series” on Saturday 9-6 before the Heights came back late in Sundays game to take a 7-6 victory.
The story heading into this match, and really the story of the season as a whole so far, is whether or not anyone is able to stop Heights catcher Denae Benites. In only four games so far this season Benites has an .824/.778/1.706 slash line with six steals and 15 RBI. Benites has hit a home run in every Heights game so far, including two on Saturday.
The Hunters will need to find some way to neutralize her bat if they want to earn a win in this third game and come back to within a game of a .500 record. Whether or not you are supporting the Heights, Benites at bats have become appointment viewing for anyone interested in the WPBL at all.
- First Pitch: 5:30 pm MDT
- How to Watch: Those in the United States can watch on either ESPN Select or the Scripps Sports Networkand international viewers can find the game on the WPBL Youtube page.
