Muleshoe has been performing well recently as they've won six of their last eight matchups. That's provided a nice bump to their 13-6 record this season. Littlefield's loss dropped their record down to 13-5.

Coming up, Muleshoe will be playing in front of their home fans against Slaton at 5:00 p.m. on Tuesday. Slaton is strutting in with some hitting muscle as they've averaged 9.1 runs per game this season. As for Littlefield, they will venture away from home to take on Roosevelt at 5:00 p.m. on Tuesday. Roosevelt has struggled to contain batters this season (they've allowed 11.89 runs per game on average), something Littlefield will no doubt try to take advantage of.
