Folsom's pitching crew has a crucial task ahead of them: Davis Sr. has been making plenty of contact this season, having averaged 11.2 hits per game. It's a different story for Folsom, though, as they've been averaging 10 hits. Given Davis Sr.'s sizable advantage in that area, Folsom will need to find a way to close that gap.
