Chowchilla was led to victory by Ryan Deatherage, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Tuesday. Yosemite had no answer to Deatherage as he struck out ten batters over seven innings while giving up just two earned runs off three hits (and only one walk). Deatherage has been consistent recently: he hasn't tossed less than five strikeouts in four consecutive pitching appearances.
Deatherage's strong effort led Chowchilla over Yosemite and he'll get a chance to do so again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 4:00 p.m. on Friday. Chowchilla is 8-2 against Yosemite going back to May of 2019, a lead they'll look to extend.
