The Westminster Owls will head out on the road to face off against the Saint James Saints at 3:00 p.m. on Saturday. Each of these teams will be fighting to keep a win streak alive as Westminster comes in on five and Saint James on four.
Westminster had to skate by with only a one-run margin when they last took the field, which might have inspired the six-run drubbing they dealt Francis Scott Key on Thursday. The Owls put the hurt on the Eagles with a sharp 14-8 win. For those keeping track at home, that's the biggest victory the Owls have posted against the Eagles since April 10, 2019.
