Hozho Academy's win was their third straight at home, which pushed their record up to 10-4. Those home victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 3.7 runs on average over those games. As for Bosque, they are on a four-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 1-10.

Both teams are looking forward to the support of their home crowds in their upcoming games. Hozho Academy will face off against Navajo Pine at 4:00 p.m. on Tuesday. The Warriors have struggled to contain batters this season (they've allowed 17.8 runs per game on average), something the Wolves will no doubt try to take advantage of.
