First Game

Game 1 vs. Las Vegas, Nevada


Keys To Success

 

  • The team as a whole didn't hit all that well last week, they'll need to improve upon that this week
  • They averaged 6 strikeouts a game and about 4 walks, reversing those numbers this week could go a long way
  • Pitching was solid but not great, they rely heavily on their defense
  • With just 19 strikeouts in 5 games they'll need their defense to surrender a lot less than the 8 unearned runs last week
  • Pete Schultz is good enough to beat any team he'll see this week, but the starters behind him will have to pitch well for them to be there on the final day
