Grandview had to skate by with only a one-run margin when they last took the field, which might have inspired the nine-run drubbing they dealt Smoky Hill on Thursday. The Wolves blew past the Buffaloes 9-0. The Wolves might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won nine matches by six runs or more this season.

Ethan Wachsmann looked comfortable as he struck out seven batters over three innings while giving up no earned runs or hits (and not a single walk). He has been nothing but reliable on the mound: he hasn't tossed less than six strikeouts in three consecutive appearances.

On the hitting side, Kyler Vaughn was a standout: he went a perfect 3-for-3 with three runs, one stolen base, and one double. That's the most runs he has posted since back in March. The team also got some help courtesy of Kayden Bohmeyer, who went 2-for-3 with four RBI and one double.

Grandview always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .529. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Smoky Hill only posted an OBP of .000.

Grandview has been performing incredibly well recently as they've won nine of their last ten games. That's provided a nice bump to their 17-3 record this season. Those victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 2.1 runs on average over those games. As for Smoky Hill, they have been struggling recently as they've lost ten of their last 11 contests. That's put a noticeable dent in their 6-14 record this season.

Grandview will have a chance to go back-to-back against Smoky Hill: the pair's next game is a rematch scheduled at 11:00 a.m. on Saturday.
