Royal has enjoyed a three-game homestand but will soon have to dust off their road jerseys. They will take on the Zillah Leopards at 3:00 p.m. on Tuesday. Royal is strutting in with some hitting muscle, as they've averaged 10.8 runs per game this season.
Last Friday, Royal came up short against Eastmont and fell 12-8. The result shouldn't come as a shock considering that's the fewest runs Royal has scored all season.
Their loss ended a 16-game streak of wins at home dating back to last season and dropped them to 4-1. As for Zillah, they've got a clean slate. Last season, they finished on the right side of .500 (9-8), and they're hoping to kick off an even more successful campaign this year.
Everything went Royal's way against Zillah in their previous meeting back in April of 2023 as Royal made off with a 15-0 victory. The rematch might be a little tougher for Royal since the squad won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
