The Amity Warriors will look to defend their home field against the Willamina Bulldogs at 4:30 p.m. Amity is strutting in with some hitting muscle as they've averaged 6.8 runs per game this season.
On Tuesday, Amity didn't have quite enough to beat Elmira and fell 8-7.

Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Willamina). They had just enough and edged out Amity 13-12 on Friday.

Willamina is on a roll lately: they've won three of their last four games. That's provided a massive bump to their 3-17 record this season.

The pitchers for both teams better look sharp on Thursday as neither team is afraid to steal. Amity has been swiping bases left and right this season, having averaged 3.8 stolen bases per game.
