The Tahoma Bears will face off against the Auburn Trojans at 4:00 p.m. on Monday. The teams are on pretty different trajectories at the moment (Tahoma has six straight victories, Auburn has three straight defeats), but none of that matters once you're on the field.
The home team had come away the winner the last five times Tahoma and Auburn Riverside had met, but sadly for the fans who attended this one that wasn't the case. The Bears were the clear victors by a 12-5 margin over the Ravens on Friday. Considering the Bears have won four contests by more than six runs this season, Friday's blowout was nothing new.
