Wyoming East's victory was their fourth straight at home, which pushed their record up to 18-6. The home wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 1.5 runs on average over those games. As for Oak Hill, their loss dropped their record down to 6-15.
The batters for both teams will have to hit smart on Tuesday as both have some strikeout artists on the roster. Wyoming East has been retiring batters left and right this season, having averaged 9.5 strikeouts per game. However, it's not like Oak Hill struggles in that department as they've been averaging 6.7 strikeouts. Considering how easily both teams rack up Ks, the hitters on both teams better bring their A-game into this one.
Wyoming East beat Oak Hill 8-5 in their previous matchup back in April. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Warriors since the squad won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
