Americas is a perfect 6-0 against Bel Air since March of 2015 and they'll have a chance to extend that dominance on Friday. The Trail Blazers are taking a road trip to take on the Highlanders at 6:30 p.m. The teams are on pretty different trajectories at the moment (Americas has seven straight wins, Bel Air has four straight losses), but none of that matters once you're on the field.
Last Monday, Americas got the win against El Dorado by a conclusive 9-3. Considering the Trail Blazers have won 14 games by more than five runs this season, Monday's blowout was nothing new.
