Game Score Predictions

Rapids 10 - underdogs 4

The Rapids will not let the receiving of their Championship Plate Ceremony prior to the game distract them. Larson will pitch a great game until getting slightly bored in the late innings and allowing a couple extra lazy runs. The udogs will show a refreshing ability to compete, but simply be outmatched.

Express 5 - Wrecking Crew 6

Scott Coleman's 1st game as a Missouri Express will be SPOILED by his former team in a payback game for the ages. Rookie Ryan Littlefield will be more than the Express bats expected going in and will become an instant star.

Lawmen 8 - Cobras 10

In a disappointing season debut, the Lawmen will falter under the heavy exceptions that have been placed on them.

underdogs 8 - Wrecking Crew 7

Following the dramatic 1st game win over Missouri, the Wrecking Crew will not show the same level of energy in their next game and lose to a win-hungry bunch of underdogs.

Bambinos 12 - Cobras 4

Colton Titus will assert himself atop the MVP race in his 1st game of the season by completely dismantling the Cobras.

Wrecking Crew 5 - Rapids 8

Longview will regain everyone's attention by pushing the Rapids, but the defending champs will be in control from start to finish.

Express 13 - underdogs 5

Kyle Godinho will take the circle and get the Express back on track with an impressively dominate outing. Ubbelohde Hill will end the day feeling defeated at 1-2, but nonetheless, walk away from the day in the playoff mix.

Lawmen 5 - Bambinos 7

Shea Thomas will bounce back with a tremendous outing vs Colton Titus, but the Bambinos will score late to seal the deal.

Waves 6 - Rapids 12

Having played no preseason games, Adam Clark will be a bit rusty and the Rapids bats will expose it early on. Castle Rock will end the day 3-0 and leave no doubt they're still top dogs of the league.

Express 9 - Waves 3

Clark will pitch much better in the 2nd game of the Waves back-to-back and keep the game within striking distance until it eventually becomes to big of a margin in the late innings. Missouri will leave Opening Day with 1 painful loss but still no-less the dominate force they've been since JAL 12. West Coast will leave still winless but not paniced as their Opening Day schedule is as hard as it gets.

Bison 3 - Bambinos 11

Having already played 2 games and won both, the Bambinos will be red hot and throw the Bison's rookie stars a brutal "Welcome to the JAL" blowout party.

Storm 4 - Lawmen 12

Desperate for a win the Lawmen will take advantage of the Storm who will be without their best player Aaron Adams on Opening Day.

Bison 12 - Storm 7

Zachary Warren will settle in for the Bison and lead the franchise to it's first win since Opening Day of last season.
