Seaside-Watsonville baseball

This is a playoff game for both these teams, who are tied for second in the Pacific Division.
Only one team is a lock to make the playoffs from the Pacific Division and that's league champion Gilroy.
Watsonville beat Seaside 3-2 and 11-2 earlier this spring. Since then the Spartans have gone 5-1 in league play, with their only loss being a 2-0 nail bitter to Gilroy.
 Matt Lualemana, who pitched a gem in a 5-4 win over North County last week, will likely get the start for Seaside. Kyle Hieb should be available if needed. This is a playoff type game.
 If Seaside wins its final two league games, 17 wins will be hard to ignore for a playoff spot. But I doubt that a third place team from the Pacific Division will make the playoffs.
