Two teams were on the hunt for playoff glory, but only Onaga walked away with it. They blew past the Bennington Bulldogs 15-2 on Thursday. The result was nothing new for the Buffaloes, who have now won seven contests by six runs or more so far this season.
Ryder Kolterman was a major factor no matter where he played. On the mound, he tossed two innings while giving up no earned runs off one hit. He has been consistent recently: he hasn't given up more than two hits in four consecutive appearances. He was even better at the plate, getting on base in two of his six plate appearances with three stolen bases and four runs. That's the most runs he has posted since back in April.
In other batting news, Onaga got a massive performance out of Tristan Kuhlman, who went 4-for-6 with four RBI, two runs, and one stolen base. That's the most hits Kuhlman has posted since back in March. The team also got some help courtesy of Keagan Venneberg, who got on base in all six of his plate appearances with three runs, one stolen base, and one RBI.
The win was the fifth in a row for Onaga, bringing their record up to 11-10. Those victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 3.6 runs on average over those games. As for Bennington, they are on a three-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 10-11-2.
Coming up, Onaga is taking a road trip to take on Frankfort at 4:00 p.m. on Tuesday. The Buffaloes will need to watch out since the Wildcats have now posted at least ten runs in their last five matchups. Bennington does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
