Ogden is 4-2 when Piper posts two or more stolen bases, but 1-16 otherwise. Another player making a difference was Rodrigo Torres, who went 2-for-4 with two runs, one double, and one RBI.

Everything went Provo's way against Ogden when the teams last played back in March of 2020, as Provo made off with a 13-0 win. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Bulldogs since the team won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
