The Desert Oasis Diamondbacks will take on the Calvary Day Cavaliers in a tournament on Monday. The two teams have allowed few runs on average, (Desert Oasis 3.9, Calvary Day 1.9) so any runs scored will be well earned.
Desert Oasis' pitching crew heads into the matchup hoping to repeat the dominance they displayed on Saturday. They walked away with a 3-0 win over Clovis West. While the Diamondbacks didn't have the best season last year (they finished 13-19), it's starting to look like those struggles are a thing of the past.
