Red Mountain's found some homefield redemption this week after a overtime loss to Kofa on Tuesday. Everything went the Mountain Lions' way against the Skyline Coyotes as they made off with a 12-2 victory. The Mountain Lions might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won nine contests by six runs or more this season.

Maddox Loria looked comfortable as he tossed 3.2 innings while giving up just one earned (and one unearned) run off three hits. He has been consistent recently: he hasn't given up more than one earned run in three consecutive appearances.

At the plate, the team relied heavily on Derek Wilson, who went 2-for-3 with two runs, one stolen base, and two RBI. The team also got some help courtesy of Simeon Johnson, who got on base in all three of his plate appearances with two runs.

Red Mountain has been performing well recently as they've won 11 of their last 13 matches. That's provided a nice bump to their 16-4 record this season. Those wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 8.1 runs over those games. As for Skyline, they have been struggling recently as they've lost six of their last eight games. That's put a noticeable dent in their 11-8 record this season.

The teams didn't have to wait long for a rematch: Red Mountain beat Skyline by a score of 12-1 on Thursday.
