After an impressive eight-game winning streak, the Modoc Braves baseball team suffered a narrow 2-1 defeat on Monday afternoon against the Lakeview Honkers. It was the Braves’ lowest-scoring performance of the season and a rare moment of silence for their typically explosive offense.
Lakeview struck early and held their ground, edging out Modoc in a defensive showdown. Despite multiple chances, the Braves couldn’t capitalize late in the game, ultimately dropping their record to 8-2 on the season.
The win marks a strong run for the Honkers, who have now taken three of their last four matchups. The Lakeview squad improves to 5-2, riding a wave of momentum as they prepare for their next challenge.
Modoc will return to their home field on Wednesday at 4:05 p.m., where they’ll look to bounce back against Lassen. The Braves are determined to regain their footing and keep their strong season on track.
Meanwhile, Lakeview will hit the road for a Tuesday showdown against Burns, scheduled for 4:00 p.m. The Hilanders will be chasing their fourth consecutive victory, but the Honkers are unlikely to give up ground easily in their current form.
