The Beaver Bobcats will head out to take on the Blackhawk Cougars at 4:00 p.m. on Monday. Beaver's pitching crew has only allowed 3.9 runs per game this season, so Blackhawk's hitters will have their work cut out for them.
For whatever reason, it's the away team that's had the advantage when Beaver and Central Valley meet (five straight games heading into this one) and that held true again on Wednesday. The Bobcats fell just short of the Warriors by a score of 5-4.
Maddox Tanner was cooking despite his team's loss, scoring two runs while getting on base in four of his six plate appearances.
Meanwhile, Blackhawk unfortunately witnessed the end of their four-game winning streak last Wednesday. They and Central Valley finished up their matchup with a 0-0 tie. The game marked the first time this year in which the Cougars were not able to get on the board.
Beaver's loss dropped their record down to 7-3. Blackhawk's tie gives them a new season record of 5-1-1.
Beaver skirted past Blackhawk 6-5 when the teams last played back in April of 2024. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Bobcats since the squad won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
