Gunnison Valley gave up the first runs on Friday, but they didn't let that get them down. They had just enough and edged out the San Juan Broncos 2-1. For the Bulldogs, this counts as revenge for the 4-0 win the Broncos walked away with the last time they faced one another back in April of 2024.

Braxton Pickett spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: he surrendered a run (which was unearned) on four hits and racked up 14 Ks. He has been nothing but reliable: he hasn't given up a single earned run in five consecutive appearances.

At the plate, Gunnison Valley saw five different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Landry Edwards, who went 2-for-3 with one home run. That home run marked the first that Edwards launched this season.

Gunnison Valley is on a roll lately: they've won 12 of their last 13 contests. That's provided a massive bump to their 12-6 record this season. Those victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 9.2 runs over those games. As for San Juan, the loss snapped their winning streak at eight games and leaves them with a 12-4 record.

The teams didn't have to wait long for a rematch: the Broncos beat Gunnison Valley by a score of 12-9 later that day.
