The Ballard Beavers are taking a road trip to take on the Bishop Blanchet Bears at 4:00 p.m. on Tuesday. Ballard is strutting in with some hitting muscle as they've averaged 8.6 runs per game this season.
Ballard is coming in fresh off a high-stakes matchup with another one of Washington's top teams: Skyline, who was ranked eighth at the time (Ballard was ranked sixth). Ballard fell just short of Skyline by a score of 2-1 on Saturday. Having soared to a lofty 16 runs in the game before, the Beavers couldn't push the score so high this time.
Ballard saw two different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Annika Jahn, who went 1-for-3 with one double and one RBI. That double marked the first that Jahn hit this season.
Meanwhile, on Thursday Bishop Blanchet's undefeated season almost came to an end. They came within a single run of losing the streak, but they secured a 5-4 W against Roosevelt. For those keeping track at home, that's the closest victory the Bears have posted against the Roughriders since April 17, 2019.
Bishop Blanchet pushed their record up to 6-0 with the win, which was their ninth straight at home dating back to last season. Those victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 10.7 runs over those games. As for Ballard, their defeat dropped their record down to 6-2.
Ballard came out on top in a nail-biter against Bishop Blanchet in their previous matchup back in April of 2024, sneaking past 2-0. The rematch might be a little tougher for Ballard since the squad won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
