Bay has gone 9-1 against Rutherford recently and they'll look to pad the win column further on Wednesday. The Tornadoes will be playing at home against the Rams at 6:00 p.m. Bay has given up an average of 8.9 runs per game this season, but Wednesday's game will give them a chance to turn things around.

Bay easily dispatched Graceville on Friday, but unfortunately both the margin and the ultimate result were a different story in this one. The Tornadoes fell just short of Vernon by a score of 11-9 on Monday. The Tornadoes have struggled against the Yellowjackets recently, as the game was their third consecutive lost meeting.

Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Rutherford). They put the hurt on Poplar Springs with a sharp 20-6 win on Friday. Perhaps unsurprisingly given the team's high-flying offense, the game also marked the team's biggest victory of the season.

Rutherford's win bumped their record up to 6-7. As for Bay, they now also have a losing record of 6-7.

Bay couldn't quite get it done against Rutherford when the teams last played back in March as they fell 7-4. Will the Tornadoes have more luck at home instead of on the road? Check back here after the action for a full breakdown and analysis of the contest.
