Shallowater is a perfect 10-0 against Muleshoe since April of 2015 and they'll have a chance to extend that dominance on Tuesday. Shallowater will face off against Muleshoe at 7:00 p.m. Shallowater's pitching crew has only allowed 3.4 runs per game this season, so Muleshoe's hitters will have their work cut out for them.
Shallowater took a loss when they played away from home on Friday, but their home fans gave them all the motivation they needed on Saturday. They were the clear victors by a 7-0 margin over Idalou. Considering the Mustangs have won nine contests by more than five runs this season, Saturday's blowout was nothing new.
Muleshoe hadn't beaten Dimmitt on the road since March 26, 2019 but that history sure didn't bother them on Saturday. Muleshoe had just enough and edged out Dimmitt 12-11. The victory made it back-to-back wins for the Mules.
The team relied heavily on Donovan Moreno, who went 3-for-4 with four RBI and two doubles. He is becoming a predictor of Muleshoe's success: when he posts at least three hits the team is undefeated (and 5-7 when he doesn't). Ram Regalado also deserves some recognition as he scored his first run of the season.
Moreno wasn't the only one working in the hit department: Muleshoe kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 11 hits. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now got at least eight hits in four consecutive matches.
Shallowater has been performing incredibly well recently as they've won six of their last seven games. That's provided a nice bump to their 15-5 record this season. The victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 3.3 runs on average over those games. Muleshoe now has a winning record of 8-7.
Shallowater took their win against Muleshoe in their previous meeting back in May of 2019 by a conclusive 14-1. The rematch might be a little tougher for Shallowater since the squad won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
