Chilton is 9-1 against Kiel since April of 2022 and they'll have a chance to extend that dominance on Monday. The Tigers will be playing at home against the Raiders at 4:30 p.m. Chilton knows how to get runs on the board -- the team has finished with ten runs or more in their past five matches -- so hopefully Kiel likes a good challenge.

Chilton's speedy runners might be the difference in Monday's contest. The Tigers have been swiping bases left and right this season, having averaged 5 stolen bases per game. It's a different story for Kiel, though, as they've been averaging only 1.4 stolen bases. Will they be able to secure the bases, or will Chilton continue to outrun the ball?
Chilton beat Kiel 7-4 in their previous matchup back in April. Do the Tigers have another victory up their sleeve, or will the Raiders turn the tables on them? We'll have the answer soon enough.
