Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Crosbyton). They put the hurt on the Springlake-Earth Wolverines with a sharp 23-11 victory on Monday. The team's explosion at the plate also rewarded the Chiefs with their most commanding win of the season.
Miah Marquez made a big impact while hitting and pitching. On the mound, he pitched two innings while giving up no earned runs or hits. He also tossed a walk, which is notable because Crosbyton is undefeated when he allows at most one walk, but 2-10 otherwise. Marquez was also stellar in the batter's box, going 3-for-5 with three runs, two RBI, and one double. Those three hits gave him a new career-high.
In other batting news, Crosbyton let Josiah Vega and Ayden Salas run wild. Vega got on base in five of his six plate appearances with four runs and two RBI, while Salas got on base in five of his six plate appearances with five runs. Those five runs gave Salas a new career-high. Another player making a difference was Anthony Barela, who got on base in five of his six plate appearances with two runs.
Crosbyton kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 21 hits. That's a new trend for them: they were averaging 5.5 hits per game earlier this season, but in their last 15 matchups they've averaged 9.
The win made it two in a row for Crosbyton and bumps their season record up to 5-10. Those victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 16.5 runs over those games. As for Springlake-Earth, they have been struggling recently as they've lost four of their last five contests. That's put a noticeable dent in their 7-11-1 record this season.
