Two teams were on the hunt for playoff glory, but only Aledo walked away with it. They put the hurt on the Amarillo Sandies with a sharp 15-2 victory on Friday. The result was nothing new for the Bearcats, who have now won 12 games by six runs or more so far this season.

Aledo got a great performance from Devin Miller as he tossed five innings while giving up just two earned runs off five hits. Miller has been consistent: he hasn't given up more than two walks in eight consecutive appearances.

On the hitting side, Landon Barnes was incredible, going 3-for-4 with one home run, three runs, and four RBI. That's the most RBI he has posted since back in April. The team also got some help courtesy of Noah Graham, who went 2-for-3 with one home run and four RBI.

Aledo always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .618. That's the best OBP they've posted all season.

The win (which was Aledo's fifth in a row) raised their record to 27-7. The victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 1.4 runs on average over those games. As for Amarillo, their loss dropped their record down to 24-13-1.

Aledo will have a chance to go back-to-back against the Sandies: the pair will be back at it again later today.
