Two teams were on the hunt for playoff glory, but only De Anza walked away with it. They had just enough and edged out the Branson Bulls 3-1. This was payback for the Dons, who suffered a 6-0 defeat the last time these two teams met.
The team relied heavily on Jason Miles, who went 1-for-3 with one triple, two RBI, and one run. That's the most RBI he has posted since back in April. The team also got some help courtesy of Ian Garcia, who went 2-for-3 with one stolen base and one double.
De Anza is on a roll lately: they've won three of their last four games. That's provided a nice bump to their 6-15-1 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 3.0 runs on average over those games. As for Branson, they have traveled a rocky road recently, having lost five of their last six matchups. That's put a noticeable dent in their 9-16 record this season.
As of now, neither De Anza nor Branson have any future games scheduled.
