The Edgerton Bulldogs will head out on the road to take on the Antwerp Archers at 5:00 p.m. on Tuesday. The teams are on pretty different trajectories at the moment (Edgerton has three straight victories, Antwerp has four straight losses), but none of that matters once you're on the field.
Edgerton had to skate by with only a one-run margin when they last took the field, which might have inspired the ten-run drubbing they dealt North Central on Monday. The Bulldogs put the hurt on the Eagles with a sharp 11-1 win. That ten run margin sets a new team best for the Bulldogs this season.
