Sokol Hluboká will compete with the Eagles of Prague this weekend, a direct opponent for promotion to the TOP | Other sports Sport | Budejcka Drbna
In the sixth round of the basic part of the Extraliga, two rivals will fight, fighting for promotion to the TOP 6. Eagles Prague is so far a quarter with seven points, Sokol Hluboká has less victory and holds the sixth promotion. However, last year’s Czech champion Arrows Ostrava, who has four bodies and pushed for an attack on the TOP 6 in the last round, is pushing Sokol from behind.
The Eagles Praha team has a history of more than forty years, and has been playing in the Extralize for 26 seasons. Last year she took third place, Hluboká was fourth overall. Krč baseball players are led by coach Vladimír Chlup. Raymond Watt, Tadeáš Zavadil and especially Martin Červenko, who has already recorded 21 hits and 5 home runs this year, are the most successful players at the bat. The Eagles rely on David Wilson, who has already been credited with three prizes, and the already mentioned Tadeáš Zavadil has excellent statistics.
Sokol is very confident at the bat, especially in Martin Mužík, who pulls the Hluboká attack with four home runs and 17 hits, Petr Síla has 16 hits, Matěj Vlach 15 and the home run was reached by Matěj Dvořák, who is the mainstay of defense on an important first target.
William Parsons will start for Sokol on Friday under artificial lighting, the second match will be started by Petr Vojta, a 20-year-old talent, as the starting pitcher on Saturday.
On Friday, May 6, Prague will play from 7 pm, the second Prague match on Saturday from 1 pm.
