How it Happened:
Charleston got on the board first in the Saturday evening nine inning contest with the Mountain Cats of Pitt-Johnstown. After walking two and committing an error to allow Hector Carreon Herrera, the Mountain Cat pitcher walked Evan Ulrich, scoring JD Armstrong from third and advancing Karosas and Carreon Herrera up a bag. The Golden Eagles plated another later in the inning after Klaserner drew another bases loaded walk to score Carreon Herrera.
 
Heading back out in the top of the third, Austin Dzierwa sat the Mountain Cats down in order, collecting two more strikeouts on the evening.
 
In the top of the fourth, Pitt-Johnstown plated a run to cut the lead to 2-1 heading into the bottom half of the inning. Charleston responded in the bottom half with a two-run blast off the bat of Drew Klaserner over the right field wall.
 
The Mountain Cats had a response of their own in the top of the fifth when the leadoff batter hit a solo homer to right to cut the deficit again to 4-2. Austin Dzierwa would keep the damage to a minimum, ending his evening after getting out of the inning, five complete innings of work giving up just three hits.
 
The rest of Charleston's run production came in the bottom of the fifth. The Golden Eagles scored three runs on three hits with the help of three Mountain Cat errors. Two failed pick-off attempts in the inning allowed Charleston runners to advance and extend the inning. Carreon Herrera, Rust, and Ulrich all collected a hit in the inning.

How it Happened:
Game two of the series got underway at high noon on Sunday afternoon with Charleston's Owen MacNeil on the mound. After a three up three down for MacNeil, Charleston headed to the plate. The Mountain Cats quickly got two outs in the inning after retiring Rust and Finck, but a two out walk to Eric Chartier got things started for Charleston. JD Armstrong singled up the middle advancing Chartier to second and passing the bat to Hector Carreon Herrera. With two strikes, Carreon Herrera pieced a ball into left center, good enough for a double and an RBI scoring Chartier.
 
In the top of the second MacNeil allowed a hit to the first batter faced but then retired the next three batters to send his team back to the dugout. Once again for Charleston, the offense got going with two outs. Brayden McCallister started things off with a single to center field before Carter Rust sent one to deep left field for his first homerun of the 2024 season. The two-run blast gave Charleston the 3-0 advantage over Pitt-Johnstown.
 
Owen MacNeil kept the Mountain Cats scoreless for the next two innings, throwing four complete before ending his day on the mound. The Mountain Cats finally got on the board with a two-run shot of their own to bring the score to 3-2, Charleston still leading.
