Their pitcher stepped up to hand the Tornillo Coyotes a 21-0 shutout. Give the Bucks' pitching crew some credit: that's the team's third straight shutout.

Alpine pushed their record up to 13-14 with the win, which was their fifth straight on the road. The road victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 1.2 runs on average over those games. As for Tornillo, their loss dropped their record down to 3-10.
Coming up, Alpine will look to defend their home field on Thursday against Kermit at 5:00 p.m. The Yellow Jackets have struggled to contain batters this season (they've allowed 8.81 runs per game on average), something the Bucks will no doubt try to take advantage of.
