This week I am picking the Top 5 Series of the Week. Here is one of them:

Orange (14-5, 7-2) vs. Ocean View (13-7, 6-3)

When: Wednesday at Orange; Friday at Ocean View

Outlook: Orange begins the week tied for first place in the Golden West League with Westminster. Ocean View is one-game back after splitting a two-game series with Santa Ana last week.

All three teams were tied for first place heading into last week.

While these two teams are meeting this week, Westminster is playing Segerstrom. Then next week, Westminster and Orange will meet.

The Panthers defeated the Seahawks, 5-4, in the first meeting.

Orange’s rotation is led by Gavin Stoecker, who is 6-2 with a 1.52 ERA, and Steve Garber, who is 4-1 with a 2.33 ERA.

The Seahawks also have some good arms in the rotation. Alfredo Sepulveda, a sophomore, is 5-2 after striking out 12 in an 8-0 victory over Santa Ana.

Andrew Bynum is 5-3 with a 1.57 ERA for the Seahawks.

Which pitching rotation will have the upper hand?

(All games at 3:15 p.m., unless noted)
