The home team had won the previous three meetings between West Valley and Central Valley, and West Valley kept the tradition alive. The Eagles were the clear victors by an 11-1 margin over the Falcons on Tuesday. The Eagles might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won six contests by seven runs or more this season.

Jayden Knight spent all six innings played on the mound, and it's clear why: he surrendered a run (which was unearned) on three hits and racked up 11 Ks. He has been consistent : he hasn't given up more than one earned run in six consecutive appearances.

At the plate, Tait Brimhall was excellent, scoring two runs while going 1-for-3. That's the most runs he has posted since back in April of 2024. Mason Mcfadden was another key player, scoring two runs while going 1-for-3.

West Valley pushed their record up to 9-3 with the win, which was their sixth straight at home dating back to last season. The home victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 9.7 runs over those games. As for Central Valley, they have been struggling recently as they've lost six of their last seven matchups. That's put a noticeable dent in their 4-9 record this season.

Central Valley will head out to challenge Anderson at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday. West Valley will be paying especially close attention to the Falcons' game: after the Falcons faces off against the Cubs, they'll take on West Valley again at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
