ROVIGO – A truly intense weekend begins for the Senior teams of the Baseball Softball Club Rovigo in the top national championships. For the girls of the A2 softball series, four matches are scheduled in three days. A real “tour de force” that will begin tomorrow with the double challenge at Collecchio, inserted in this week of the competitive calendar to avoid overlapping with the Softball World Cup in which several rossoblù athletes will also participate.
Starting with some players from the Rovigo senior team who are currently waiting for a call from Italy’s Under 18s, while the two Under 15s from Polesine, Boraso and Bottazzi, have already received the Italian call-up for the continental competition.
On Sunday we will return to the home diamond in via Vittorio Veneto to host the Nuove Pantere Lucca in a perhaps decisive match to define the hierarchies of Group B of Serie A2. In fact, the “Girls” from Rovigo are all watching from above, while Lucca is the first pursuer and will go up to Polesine with the aim of getting closer to the top and keeping the sprint open for first place. On the contrary, Rovigo will try to collect the points that would allow them to extend the margin over all their rivals and face the last phase of the group without worries, already looking towards the playoffs.
The objective seems within the reach of the Polesine roster, but the unknown of the four matches in three days requires maximum caution, especially in managing physical and nervous energy. Race one is scheduled for tomorrow afternoon in Collecchio at 5pm, while on Sunday in Rovigo the first laps will be at 11am.
Comparison to be taken with a pinch of salt also for theItas Mutua Rovigo in the Serie A baseball championship. The “Adige derby” is scheduled for Saturday at the “Plebiscito” in Padua. Facing the first of the class of Group C, Rovigo, against the fifth.
The predictions therefore lean in favor of the coach-trained team Soto Diaz, but it is forbidden to let your guard down. The double victory against New Rimini has given a lot of morale to Itas Mutua Rovigo, who now intend to repel the assault of Farma Crocetta, who have risen to second place in the Group. Padova will field one of the most consistent foreigners of the season on the mound, on the other hand Rovigo will try to confirm the good rotations of the last matches, even if there are new physical problems for Javier Diaz, whose presence is in doubt. Game one will be played at 3pm, game two at 8.30pm.
