The Oak Glen Golden Bears will head out to square off against the Williamstown Yellowjackets at 12:00 p.m. on Saturday. The teams are on pretty different trajectories at the moment (Oak Glen has four straight victories, Williamstown has three straight losses), but none of that matters once you're on the field.
Oak Glen had to skate by with only a one-run margin when they last took the field, which might have inspired the 11-run drubbing they dealt Edison on Friday. The Golden Bears were the clear victors by a 14-3 margin over the Wildcats. Considering the Golden Bears have won ten games by more than five runs this season, Friday's blowout was nothing new.
