St. Xavier had to skate by with only a two-run margin when they last took the field, which might have inspired the ten-run drubbing they dealt Talawanda on Monday. The Bombers' pitchers stepped up to hand the Brave a 10-0 shutout. The Bombers were shut out 1-0 the last time they took on the Brave, so the Bombers were just returning the favor.

St. Xavier has been performing well recently as they've won six of their last eight contests. That's provided a massive bump to their 10-11 record this season. Those victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 3.0 runs on average over those games. As for Talawanda, their loss was their eighth straight on the road, which dropped their record down to 11-17.

Both squads are looking forward to the support of their home crowds in their upcoming games. St. Xavier will welcome Batavia at 5:00 p.m. on Wednesday. The Bulldogs will roll in looking for their ninth straight win, something the Bombers surely won't give up without a fight. As for Talawanda, they will host Cincinnati Hills Christian Academy at 5:00 p.m. on Wednesday.
