Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Bayless). Everything went their way against the St. Mary's Dragons on Monday as they made off with a 23-1 win. The result was nothing new for the Bronchos, who have now won 11 contests by nine runs or more so far this season.

Andrew Bolden made a big impact no matter where he played. He tossed three innings while giving up just one earned run off two hits. What's more, he posted four strikeouts, the most he's had since back in May of 2024. He was also big at the plate, getting on base in two of his four plate appearances with three runs and two RBI.

In other batting news, the team relied heavily on Aiden Engert, who went a perfect 2-for-2 with four RBI, two runs, and one double. That's the most runs he has posted since back in April of 2024. Another player making a difference was Henry Craig, who got on base in three of his four plate appearances with three runs and one RBI.

Bayless always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .667. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as St. Mary's only posted an OBP of .250.

Bayless is on a roll lately: they've won eight of their last nine matchups. That's provided a massive bump to their 13-6 record this season. The victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 3.2 runs on average over those games. As for St. Mary's, they are on a five-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 2-10.
