Baseball Recap: Othello's Win on Saturday Extends Winning Streak to Four

Othello barely beat Chiawana the last time the pair played, but that sure wasn't the case this time around. Othello blew past Chiawana 12-2 on Saturday. That's two games straight that the Huskies have won by exactly ten runs.

Xzyyvn Martinez was a major factor while hitting and pitching. He looked comfortable on the mound, tossing four innings while giving up just one earned (and one unearned) run off two hits. Martinez was even better at the plate, scoring two runs and stealing a base while getting on base in all four of his plate appearances.

In other batting news, the team relied heavily on Jordan Montemayor, who got on base in all four of his plate appearances with one home run, three runs, and three RBI. The team also got some help courtesy of Rjay Garza, who went a perfect 2-for-2 with five RBI, one run, and one double.

Othello always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .667. That's the best OBP they've posted all season.

03/22/25 vs North Kitsap	4-1
03/22/25 @ Columbia River	5-2

The win (which was Othello's fourth in a row) raised their record to 4-1. Those victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 1.3 runs on average over those games. As for Chiawana, the loss snapped their winning streak at seven games and leaves them with a 7-2 record.

Both squads will have to hit the road in their upcoming games. Othello will square off against Prosser at 5:00 p.m. on Tuesday. Prosser has struggled to contain batters this season (they've allowed ten runs per game on average), something Othello will no doubt try to take advantage of. As for Chiawana, they will take on Southridge at 5:00 p.m. on Tuesday. Southridge's pitching crew has only allowed four runs per game this season, so Chiawana's hitters will have their work cut out for them.
