The West Ranch Wildcats will face off against the Camarillo Scorpions at 3:30 p.m. on Tuesday. West Ranch is strutting in with some hitting muscle as they've averaged 7.8 runs per game this season.
Camarillo will be up against a hot West Ranch squad: the team just extended their winning streak to three. The Wildcats walked away with a 5-2 victory over Highland on Saturday. That's two games straight that the Wildcats have won by exactly three runs.
Jonathan Crowley looked comfortable as he tossed 2.2 innings while giving up no earned runs off two hits. He has been nothing but reliable on the mound: he hasn't given up more than two walks any time he's pitched this season.
At the plate, the team relied heavily on Landon Hu, who went 2-for-4 with two runs, one triple, and one double. That triple was his first of the season. The team also got some help courtesy of Nolan Stoll, who scored a run and stole a base while going 1-for-2.
For whatever reason, it's the away team that's had the advantage when Camarillo and Agoura meet (three straight games heading into this one) and that held true again on Monday. The Scorpions never let the Chargers get on the board and left with a 3-0 win. The victory was a breath of fresh air for the Scorpions as it put an end to their three-game losing streak.
Not much got past Ryan Coyne, who gave up just three hits and racked up eight Ks to keep Agoura off the board. Those eight strikeouts set a new season-high mark for Coyne.
On the hitting side, Brayden Smith was incredible, going 2-for-3 with one home run and two RBI.
Camarillo's win bumped their record up to 6-12. As for West Ranch, their victory bumped their record up to 13-6.
Camarillo's pitching crew has a crucial task ahead of them: West Ranch has hit smart this season, having averaged an OBP of .436. It's a different story for Camarillo, though, as they've only averaged .292. Will they be able to contain West Ranch's hitters?
West Ranch might still be hurting after the 10-0 defeat they got from Camarillo when the teams last played back in February of 2024. Can the Wildcats avenge their loss or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
