Whitehaven is a perfect 10-0 against Kingsbury since March of 2016 and they'll have a chance to extend that dominance on Tuesday. Whitehaven will head out to challenge Kingsbury at 4:30 p.m. Whitehaven is strutting in with some hitting muscle as they've averaged 7 runs per game this season.

Whitehaven had taken Germantown down for three straight games at home, but that winning streak came to an end on Monday. Whitehaven came up short against Germantown, falling 11-1. The Tigers have now taken an 'L' in back-to-back games.

Whitehaven saw two different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Jaylon Dodson, who scored a run and stole a base while going 2-for-2. Dodson has been hot recently, having posted at least one stolen base the last three times he's played.

Meanwhile, Kingsbury didn't have quite enough to beat Trezevant on Monday and fell 12-11.

Landon Harris was cooking despite his team's loss, scoring a run and stealing four bases while getting on base in three of his four plate appearances. The dominant performance also gave him a new career-high in RBI (three). Another player making a difference was Luther Mitchell, who scored two runs and stole two bases while getting on base in all three of his plate appearances.

Even though they lost, Kingsbury always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .679. That was just more of the same: they've now posted an OBP of .615 or higher in three consecutive contests.

Kingsbury has been struggling recently as they've lost three of their last four matches. That's put a noticeable dent in their 3-3 record this season. Whitehaven now has a losing record of 1-2-1.

Tuesday's game might come down to which pitcher can control the ball better. Whitehaven has hit smart this season, having averaged an OBP of .610. However, it's not like Kingsbury struggles in that department as they've averaged .656. With both teams so capable at the plate, fans should be ready for an impressive hitting performance.

Whitehaven took their victory against Kingsbury in their previous meeting back in April of 2024 by a conclusive 17-3. The rematch might be a little tougher for Whitehaven since the team won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
