The Lehigh Valley Connie Mack Baseball League is heading into the homestretch with just two weeks of games left in its regular-season.
Emmaus, led by first-year head coach Mike Behr, is looking to clinch a berth in the post-season as the top 12 teams will qualify for the playoffs, which get underway on July 15.
The Hornets started the season 7-2, but have struggled as of late dropping four of its last six games and are now 9-6. The four losses have come against Coplay (15-5), Northeast Bethlehem (10-8), Bangor (7-6) and most recently, league-leading Moore Township (13-3).
Emmaus has two games left on its schedule beginning with a home game at Community Park against Wilson on Friday, July 5 at 6 p.m. They’ll close out the regular-season on Wednesday, July 10 as they travel to Limeport Stadium to take on Southern Lehigh at 7 p.m.
