Blackfoot is on a 13-game streak of home wins (dating back to last season), while Bonneville is on a three-game streak of away wins: one of those streaks is about to end. The Broncos will host the Bees at 3:00 p.m. on Wednesday. Both squads will be entering this one on the heels of a big victory.
Blackfoot is headed in fresh off scoring the most runs they have all season. They were the clear victors by a 25-1 margin over Century on Monday. Perhaps unsurprisingly given the team's high-flying offense, the game also marked the team's biggest win of the season.
Peyton Taylor was a major factor no matter where he played. He looked comfortable on the mound, tossing one inning while giving up no earned runs off one hit. He has been consistent recently: he hasn't given up more than two hits in four consecutive appearances. He was also big at the plate, going 2-for-4 with two runs, one triple, and one RBI. That's the most hits he has posted since back in April of 2024.
