The Pride were the clear victors by a 21-1 margin over the Warriors. The Pride have beaten the Warriors the last four times they've met, but they better watch out: this was the closest the Warriors has come to flipping the script.

McDaniels was also solid in the batter's box, going 1-for-2 with two runs, one stolen base, and two RBI.

Bradshaw Christian's speedy runners might be the difference in Tuesday's matchup. The Pride have been swiping bases left and right this season, having averaged 3 stolen bases per game. It's a different story for Union Mine, though, as they've been averaging only 1.2 stolen bases. Will they be able to secure the bases, or will Bradshaw Christian continue to outrun the ball?
