North Ridgeville's victory was their ninth straight at home, which pushed their record up to 13-1.

As for Bay, they are on a three-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 4-7.
Coming up, North Ridgeville will take on Berea-Midpark at 4:45 p.m. on Monday. As for Bay, they will be playing at home against Valley Forge at 5:00 p.m. on Monday. The Patriots have struggled to contain batters this season (they've allowed 9.29 runs per game on average), something the Rockets will no doubt try to take advantage of.
