Meanwhile, Westlake didn't have quite enough to beat Venice on Saturday and fell 4-3.
Emma Tedder was a force to be reckoned with on the mound despite the final result: she struck out seven batters over 6.2 innings while giving up just two earned (and two unearned) runs off 11 hits (and not a single walk).
On the hitting side, Westlake saw three different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Lily Barrett, who went 2-for-3 with one run and one double.
Agoura is on a roll lately: they've won four of their last five contests. That's provided a nice bump to their 15-11 record this season. Those victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 14.8 runs over those games. As for Westlake, they have been struggling recently as they've lost four of their last five games. That's put a noticeable dent in their 15-12 record this season.
Fans could be in store for some top-tier slugging on Tuesday. Agoura hasn't had any problems when it comes to power this season, having averaged 1.4 home runs per game. However, it's not like Westlake struggles in that department as they've been averaging an even more impressive 0.5 home runs. With so much power on both teams, it'll be down to the pitchers to keep the mound locked down.
Everything went Agoura's way against Westlake in their previous meeting back in April, as Agoura made off with a 15-6 win. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Chargers since the team won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
