Game of the Week.

Southside Hitmen vs Rodeo Baseball. If you’ve been around this league, you already know what this is.

These two have gone at it year after year. Close games, big moments, and neither side backing down. There’s history here, and it shows every time they step on the field.

Both teams come in ready, both expect to win, and neither is giving anything away.

April 26. 1:00 PM. Kerry Wood Cubs Field.

This one usually delivers.
