Tuesday's matchup will be a test for both teams' pitchers. El Camino hasn't had any issues making contact this season, having earned a batting average of .334. However, it's not like Casa Roble struggles in that department as they've averaged .407. With both teams so capable at the plate, fans should be ready for an impressive hitting performance.
El Camino might still be hurting after the 15-2 defeat they got from Casa Roble in their previous matchup back in March. Can the Eagles avenge their loss or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
