Tokay always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .593. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Chavez only posted an OBP of .227.

Meanwhile, after a string of four wins, Edison's good fortune finally ran out on Wednesday. They lost 13-3 to Bear Creek.

Naderah Ali made the most of her time at bat despite the final result and went 2-for-3 with two runs, one triple, and one stolen base. She is on a roll when it comes to stolen bases, as she's now snagged at least one in each of the last six games she's played.

Tokay pushed their record up to 13-8 with the victory, which was their seventh straight at home. Those home wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 11.0 runs over those games. As for Edison, their loss dropped their record down to 8-13.

The pitchers for both teams better look sharp on Tuesday as neither team is afraid to steal. Tokay has been swiping bases left and right this season, having averaged 3.2 stolen bases per game. However, it's not like Edison struggles in that department as they've been averaging an even more impressive 4.6 stolen bases. The only question left is which team can snag more.

Everything went Tokay's way against Edison in their previous meeting on April 9th, as Tokay made off with a 14-4 victory. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Tigers since the team won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
