The batters for both teams will have to hit smart on Tuesday as both have some strikeout artists on the roster. Parrish Community has been retiring batters left and right this season, having averaged 8.8 strikeouts per game. However, it's not like Mitchell struggles in that department as they've been averaging an even more impressive 8.7 strikeouts.
