Probable starters for tonight’s game are Mason Studstill (1-0) for the Turks and Colin Reid for the Cannons. Studstill’s first appearance was a start against Waynesboro. He gained his first decision and gave up one earned on three hits. This will be Reid’s first appearance for the Cannons this season. He plays his college ball for the Highlanders of Radford.

The Turks beat out the Cannons in the season series 2-1 last year.

He also went 1-for-3 at the plate and scored a run.
