Woods Cross is probably headed into the contest with a chip on their shoulder considering Viewmont just ended the team's seven-game winning streak on Friday. They fell 9-4 to the Vikings.

For Viewmont's part, Cal Miller spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: he surrendered four runs (all of which were unearned) on eight hits and racked up nine Ks.

Viewmont always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .526. They are a perfect 6-0 when they post an OBP of .513 or better.

Viewmont is on a roll lately: they've won three of their last four games. That's provided a nice bump to their 11-9 record this season. Those wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 4.0 runs on average over those games. As for Woods Cross, their loss dropped their record down to 12-8.

The pitchers for both teams better look sharp on Monday as neither team is afraid to steal. Woods Cross has been swiping bases left and right this season, having averaged 4 stolen bases per game. However, it's not like Viewmont struggles in that department as they've been averaging 3.1 stolen bases. The only question left is which team can snag more.
