Baseball: Today’s county schedules — March 9

What to watch

Zephyrhills (5-0) at Hudson (3-1), 7

Pitching has been key to the Bulldogs’ perfect start. After all, they have allowed just eight runs in their first five games. The host Cobras, meanwhile, have recorded double digits in runs in each of their three wins. 

Lennard (5-0) at Strawberry Crest (4-2), 7

The undefeated Longhorns are ranked No. 6 in Class 6A. That streak will be tested against the Chargers, who have a prolific offense that is averaging nine runs per game. 

Bell Creek Academy (4-1) at Carrollwood Day (4-2), 7

Panthers ace Tyler Fritsch is coming off a perfect game with 12 strikeouts in a win over Cambridge Christian. He will go up against a Patriots offense that is averaging seven runs per game.
