The Vikings will face off against the Blue Devils at 3:30 p.m. Both teams are coming into the match red-hot, with Oxford Hills sitting on four straight wins and Lewiston on three.

While Oxford Hills' victory against Edward Little wasn't quite the blowout it was the last time the pair played, they still came out on top. The Vikings' pitchers stepped up to hand the Red Eddies a 1-0 shutout on Tuesday. The one-run effort marked the Vikings' lowest-scoring contest of the season, but in the end it didn't matter.

Lewiston hadn't beaten Brunswick on the road since May 22, 2019 but that history sure didn't bother them on Tuesday. The Blue Devils came out on top in a nail-biter against the Dragons, sneaking past 5-3. For those keeping track at home, that's the closest win the Blue Devils have posted against the Dragons since April 24, 2019.

Oxford Hills pushed their record up to 10-3 with the victory, which was their third straight at home. The home wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 1.3 runs on average over those games. As for Lewiston, they now have a winning record of 7-6.

Oxford Hills beat Lewiston 4-0 when the teams last played two weeks ago. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Vikings since the team won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
