The Legacy Tigers will square off against the Schurr Spartans at 10:00 a.m. on Saturday. The two teams have allowed few runs on average (Legacy 3, Schurr 2.8) so any runs scored will be well earned.
Legacy barely beat South Gate the last time the pair played, but that sure wasn't the case this time around. The Tigers' pitcher stepped up to hand the Rams a 16-0 shutout on Friday. The result was nothing new for the Tigers, who have now won 12 matches by six runs or more so far this season.
Dail Dorado made a big impact while hitting and pitching. On the mound, she didn't allow a single earned run over five innings pitched. She has been nothing but reliable: she hasn't given up more than two walks in three consecutive appearances. She was also solid in the batter's box, going a perfect 3-for-3 with two RBI. That's the most hits she has posted since back in April of 2024.

Legacy couldn't quite get it done against Schurr when the teams last played back in April of 2024 as they fell 9-4. Will the Tigers have more luck at home instead of on the road? Check MaxPreps after the action for a full breakdown of the game and more softball content.
