Idalou has gone a perfect 3-0 against Dimmitt recently and they'll look to pad the win column further on Tuesday. A feisty cat fight will be fought as Idalou Wildcats duke it out with Dimmitt Bobcats at 7:00 p.m. Dimmitt took a loss in their last matchup and will be looking to turn the tables on Idalou, who comes in off a win.

Idalou had to skate by with only a one-run margin when they last took the field, which might have inspired the six-run drubbing they dealt Slaton on Saturday. Idalou put the hurt on Slaton with a sharp 13-7 win. Considering the Wildcats have won seven contests by more than five runs this season, Saturday's blowout was nothing new.

Meanwhile, after soaring to 21 runs the game before, Dimmitt was a bit more limited in their game on Saturday. They lost 13-1 to Shallowater. The Bobcats haven't had much luck with the Mustangs recently, as the team has come up short the last seven times they've met.

Dimmitt saw three different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Ga'Quorie Chatham, who went 1-for-2 with one triple and one RBI. That triple marked the first that Chatham hit this season.

Idalou has been performing incredibly well recently as they've won eight of their last nine matches. That's provided a nice bump to their 11-4-1 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 4.0 runs on average over those games. Dimmitt's defeat dropped their record down to 8-5.

Idalou took their victory against Dimmitt in their previous meeting back in May of 2024 by a conclusive 20-2. Does Idalou have another victory up their sleeve, or will Dimmitt turn the tables on them? We'll have the answer soon enough.
