Chowchilla is a perfect 10-0 against Sierra since April of 2021 and they'll have a chance to extend that dominance on Tuesday. The Tribe will host the Chieftains at 4:00 p.m.
Chowchilla is probably headed into the match with a chip on their shoulder considering Liberty just ended the team's three-game winning streak on Thursday. The two teams finished up on equal footing with a 7-7 tie.
Meanwhile, Sierra never let their opponents score on Thursday. They were the clear victors by a 10-0 margin over Minarets. The result was nothing new for the Chieftains, who have now won eight contests by six runs or more so far this season.
Daniel Blue and Wyatt Young were a major factor no matter where they played. On the mound, Blue pitched two innings while giving up no earned runs or hits. Meanwhile, Young didn't allow a single earned run while striking out seven over five innings pitched. Blue has been nothing but reliable on the mound: he hasn't given up more than two hits in three consecutive appearances. At the plate, Blue scored a run while getting on base in three of his five plate appearances, while Young scored three runs while going 4-for-4. Those four hits gave Young a new career-high.
In other batting news, the team relied heavily on David Rivas, who scored a run while going 2-for-3. Micah Goodman was another key player, going 2-for-4 with one double and one RBI.
Sierra kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 11 hits. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now got at least nine hits in seven consecutive games.
Sierra has been performing incredibly well recently as they've won nine of their last ten matchups. That's provided a nice bump to their 11-3 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 9.1 runs over those games. Chowchilla's tie gives them a new season record of 5-8-1.
Everything went Chowchilla's way against Sierra in their previous meeting back in April of 2024, as Chowchilla made off with a 12-2 victory. Do the Tribe have another victory up their sleeve, or will the Chieftains turn the tables on them? We'll have the answer soon enough.
