Ruidoso had already won five in a row (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 17.2 runs) and they went ahead and made it six on Saturday. They blew past the Sandia Prep Sundevils 21-4. The result was nothing new for the Warriors, who have now won 14 matchups by seven runs or more so far this season.

Ruidoso got a massive performance out of Baylor Pritchett, who scored three runs and stole three bases while getting on base in four of her five plate appearances. That's the most stolen bases Pritchett has posted since back in March. Another player making a difference was Mea Trujillo, who scored two runs and stole three bases while going 3-for-3.

Ruidoso always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .784. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Sandia Prep only posted an OBP of .500.

Ruidoso pushed their record up to 16-2 with the win, which was their sixth straight on the road. Those road victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 2.3 runs on average over those games. As for Sandia Prep, this is the second loss in a row for them and nudges their season record down to 3-13.

Looking ahead, Ruidoso will venture away from home to face off against Dexter at 5:00 p.m. on Tuesday. The Demons' pitching crew has only allowed 1.5 runs per game this season, so the Warriors' hitters will have their work cut out for them. As for Sandia Prep, they will welcome Estancia at 3:00 p.m. on Thursday.
