Belleview is on a roll lately: they've won seven of their last eight matchups. That's provided a nice bump to their 12-5 record this season.

Tuesday's contest might come down to which pitcher can control the ball better. Williston has hit smart this season, having averaged an OBP of .437. However, it's not like Belleview struggles in that department as they've averaged .451. With both teams so capable at the plate, fans should be ready for an impressive hitting performance.
