Logan is on a roll lately: they've won 11 of their last 13 contests. That's provided a nice bump to their 17-4 record this season.

The batters for both teams will have to hit smart on Friday as both have some strikeout artists on the roster. Woodrow Wilson has been retiring batters left and right this season, having averaged 10.7 strikeouts per game. However, it's not like Logan struggles in that department as they've been averaging an even more impressive 10.9 strikeouts.
