Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Ruidoso). They blew past the Mescalero Apache Chiefs 20-0 on Saturday. Perhaps unsurprisingly given the team's high-flying offense, the game also marked the team's biggest win of the season.
Cayden Wilson looked comfortable as he didn't allow a single earned run while striking out six over four innings pitched. Furthermore, he didn't allow a single walk, the first time he has blanked an opponent since back in March of 2024.
At the plate, Ruidoso got a massive performance out of Mason Fikany, who scored two runs and stole five bases while going 2-for-3. That's the most runs Fikany has posted since back in April of 2024. The team also got some help courtesy of Joel Ortega, who scored three runs and stole two bases while going 3-for-4.
Ruidoso always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .658. They are undefeated (4-0) when they post an OBP of .513 or better.
