Joe Leal, Portola's leading hitter, solidified his role on Friday. Williams had no answer to Leal as he scored two runs and stole two bases while going 2-for-2. Leal is becoming a predictor of Portola's success: when he posts at least two runs the team is 5-1 (and 1-11 when he doesn't).

Leal's strong effort led Portola over Williams and he'll get a chance to do so again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 3:00 p.m. on Friday. The Yellowjackets are limping into the matchup having lost five straight on the road. There's no doubt they're looking for a change of fortune, but will Leal and the Tigers have enough to stop it?
