If Socorro was feeling good fresh off their 17-5 takedown of Capitan on Tuesday, their most recent game may have dampened their spirits a bit. The Warriors fell just short of the Bosque Bobcats by a score of 8-7 on Thursday. The Warriors were given a dose of their own medicine in this game as the Bobcats apparently hadn't forgotten their loss the last time these teams played back in March of 2025.
Cullen Baxter was huge no matter where he played even without the win. He looked comfortable on the mound, not allowing a single earned run while striking out 13 over six innings pitched. Baxter was also big at the plate, going 3-for-4 with two RBI and one run.
Baxter wasn't the only one making solid contact as five players wound up with at least one hit. One of them was Manuel Torres, who went 2-for-3 with three stolen bases, two runs, and one double. Miguel Armendariz was another, going a perfect 2-for-2 with one stolen base, one run, and one RBI.
Socorro now has a losing record of 1-2.
The teams didn't have to wait long for a rematch: the Warriors beat Bosque by a score of 15-7 later that day.
