Chaparral came out on top against Douglass on Monday thanks in part to the team's impressive five-run seventh inning. The Roadrunners were the clear victors by an 8-2 margin over the Bulldogs. The Roadrunners might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won seven games by six runs or more this season.

Conner Hostetler was a major factor while hitting and pitching. On the mound, he struck out six batters over 4.2 innings while giving up just one earned run off one hit (and not a single walk). He has become a key player for Chaparral: the team is undefeated when he allows at most three hits, but 8-9 otherwise. Hostetler was also big at the plate, getting on base in three of his five plate appearances with one run.

In other batting news, Chaparral let Kale Greve and Ty Hadsall run wild. Greve went 1-for-3 with two RBI and one run, while Hadsall got on base in three of his five plate appearances with one stolen base, one run, and one RBI. That's the most RBI Greve has posted since back in April of 2024.

Chaparral has been performing incredibly well recently as they've won six of their last seven matchups. That's provided a nice bump to their 12-9 record this season. Those wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 10.3 runs over those games. As for Douglass, they are on a three-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 10-9-1.

Chaparral will have a chance to go back-to-back against the Bulldogs: the pair will be back at it again later today.
