Midtown has gone 8-1 against Mays recently and they'll look to pad the win column further on Tuesday. The Knights will head out to take on the Raiders at 6:00 p.m. Midtown will be looking to extend their current four-game winning streak.
Midtown came out on top against Creekside on Monday thanks in part to the team's impressive six-run fifth inning. The Knights blew past the Seminoles 12-5. Considering the Knights have won five matchups by more than five runs this season, Monday's blowout was nothing new.
Dylan Smith looked comfortable as he didn't allow a single earned run and allowed only two hits while striking out six over four innings pitched. He has been nothing but reliable on the mound: he hasn't given up more than one earned run in four consecutive appearances.

The pitchers for both teams better look sharp on Tuesday as neither team is afraid to steal. Midtown has been swiping bases left and right this season, having averaged 4.6 stolen bases per game. However, it's not like Mays struggles in that department as they've been averaging 8.9 stolen bases. The only question left is which team can snag more.
Everything went Midtown's way against Mays in their previous matchup on March 11th, as Midtown made off with a 19-1 win. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Knights since the team won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
