THE SKINNY: Amalia isn't totally sure Borkovich will pitch. If he doesn't, junior Nick McCowin will start, and Borkovich will be the DH. Both are 4-0. Borkovich's ERA is 1.45 and McCowin's 4.25. ... Blackhawk will have to control a West Allegheny offense that has scored 23 runs in two playoff games. West Allegheny has scored 10 or more runs in 12 games, including four of the past five. Littler is batting .492, Devereaux .464, Diskin .409 and Sinclair .388. Sinclair is 6-0 with a 1.86 ERA. ... DiRuscia is hitting .457 with 24 RBIs. Denman is batting .368 with 13 doubles.

PREDICTED WINNER: West Allegheny.
