El Rancho barely beat Santa Fe the last time the pair played, but that sure wasn't the case this time around. The Dons put the hurt on the Chiefs with a sharp 13-3 victory on Tuesday. Considering the Dons have won six games by more than seven runs this season, Tuesday's blowout was nothing new.
Jaelynn Barragan looked comfortable as she didn't allow a single earned run over four innings pitched. She has been nothing but reliable on the mound: she hasn't given up more than one earned run in three consecutive appearances.
On the hitting side, Malaya Vargas was a standout: she went 2-for-4 with one home run, four RBI, and two runs. She is on a roll when it comes to RBI, as she's now brought in three or more in each of the last three games she's played. Noelie Guerrero also deserves some recognition as she hit her first triples of the season.
El Rancho was getting hits left and right and finished the game having posted a batting average of .500. They are 6-1 when they post a batting average of .375 or better.
El Rancho has been performing well recently as they've won seven of their last nine matches. That's provided a nice bump to their 8-5-1 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 9.6 runs over those games. As for Santa Fe, they now have a losing record of 6-7.
Looking ahead, El Rancho will venture away from home to square off against Paramount at 3:15 p.m. on Wednesday. As for Santa Fe, they will welcome La Serna at 3:15 p.m. on Thursday. The Lancers' pitching crew has only allowed four runs per game this season, so the Chiefs' hitters will have their work cut out for them.
