Tolleson barely beat Sunnyslope the last time the pair played, but that sure wasn't the case this time around. The Wolverines blew past the Vikings 16-2 on Wednesday. The result was nothing new for the Wolverines, who have now won 18 games by six runs or more so far this season.
Mayrin Acuna spent all six innings played on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered just two earned runs on four hits. She has been consistent for a while: she hasn't given up more than two walks in ten consecutive appearances.
On the hitting side, Tolleson got a massive performance out of Adamariz Padilla, who went 3-for-4 with one home run, three runs, and three RBI. Those three runs gave Padilla a new career-high. Another player making a difference was Phoenix Preciado, who went 2-for-5 with one home run, three runs, and four RBI.
Tolleson was getting hits left and right and finished the game having posted a batting average of .514. That was just more of the same: they've now posted a batting average of .379 or higher in eight consecutive matchups.
Tolleson's win was their fourth straight on the road, which pushed their record up to 23-5. Those road victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 1.0 run on average over those games. As for Sunnyslope, they have traveled a rocky road recently, having lost three of their last four contests. That's put a noticeable dent in their 11-15 record this season.
Both squads are looking forward to the support of their home crowds in their upcoming games. Tolleson will square off against West Point at 6:00 p.m. on Thursday. The Wolverines' pitchers better be ready for this one: the Dragons have averaged an impressive 10.3 runs per game this season. As for Sunnyslope, they will take on Xavier College Prep at 6:30 p.m. on Thursday. The Gators' pitching crew has only allowed 1.9 runs per game this season, so the Vikings' hitters will have their work cut out for them.
