Meanwhile, Tuesday just wasn't the day for Fresno's offense. They came up short against Hoover on Tuesday, falling 11-0. Having soared to a lofty 24 runs in the game before, the Warriors' shutout was a dramatic turnaround.
Torres pushed their record up to 10-10 with the victory, which was their fifth straight at home. Those home wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 17.2 runs over those games. As for Fresno, their loss dropped their record down to 4-11-1.
Friday's contest will be a test for both teams' pitchers. Torres hasn't had any issues making contact this season, having earned a batting average of .375. However, it's not like Fresno struggles in that department as they've averaged .380. With both teams so capable at the plate, fans should be ready for an impressive hitting performance.
Torres skirted past Fresno 13-11 in their previous meeting on April 8th. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Toros since the squad won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
