It's playoff time, and Hutto had no trouble coming through when it counted. They put the hurt on the Del Valle Cardinals with a sharp 8-1 win on Saturday. Considering the Hippos have won 11 contests by more than six runs this season, Saturday's blowout was nothing new.

Hutto has been performing well recently as they've won ten of their last 13 games. That's provided a nice bump to their 15-13 record this season. Those victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 6.5 runs over those games. As for Del Valle, this is the second loss in a row for them and nudges their season record down to 16-9-1.

Looking ahead, Hutto will take on Taft on Friday. The Raiders' pitching crew has only allowed four runs per game this season, so the Hippos' hitters will have their work cut out for them. Del Valle does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
