The batters for both teams will have to hit smart on Monday as both have some strikeout artists on the roster. Morgan has been retiring batters left and right this season, having averaged 6.7 strikeouts per game. However, it's not like Tri-Valley struggles in that department as they've been averaging 6.7 strikeouts. Considering how easily both teams rack up Ks, the hitters on both teams better bring their A-game into this one.
Morgan couldn't quite get it done against Tri-Valley in their previous meeting back in April of 2024 as they fell 6-1. Can the Raiders avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
