Rimini Baseball comes into the game on a 4 game winning streak and sit at 8-2 overall, while leading the league in hitting with a team Batting Average of .318. Parma, after a 3-0 start, has slipped to 3-5 and look to rebound on their trip to Rimini.
Rimini boasts the leagues two top leading hitters in Jack Santaro (.486) and Alexander Romero (.432). Romero also leads the league in RBI’s with 14. Look for Roberto Corradini (3.10 ERA) and Enorbel Marquez (1.78 ERA) to make the starts for Rimini this weekend.
Parma will look to keep the games low scoring as they do not have the bats to keep up to Rimini in a slugfest. If the game is close, look to Niccolo Loardi (1.08 ERA) to make a difference in the later innings. Offensively, Stefano Desimoni (.414 BA) leads Parma.
