The Chaffey Tigers will look to take advantage of their home field for the first time this season as they take on the Montclair Cavaliers at 3:30 p.m. on Monday. Given that the two teams suffered a loss in their last games, they both have a little extra motivation heading into this game.
Last Friday, Chaffey didn't have quite enough to beat Don Lugo and fell 5-4.
Emilio Alcala was cooking despite his team's loss, going 1-for-3 with one triple, two RBI, and one run. That triple marked the first that he hit this season.
Meanwhile, Montclair fought the good fight in their extra-innings match against Whittier on Tuesday but wound up with a less-than-desirable result. They fell just short of the Cardinals by a score of 4-3. The Cavaliers' defeat continues a trend for the squad, making it six in a row.
Montclair also got a good showing from Isaac Merancio, who pitched three innings while giving up just one earned run off three hits.
Chaffey has traveled a rocky road recently, having lost four of their last five contests. That's put a noticeable dent in their 4-7 record this season. Montclair's loss dropped their record down to 4-9.
