Agua Fria scored the most runs they've had this season on Monday, but it wasn't enough. They fell just short of the Westview Knights by a score of 16-14. The Owls were given a dose of their own medicine in this game as the Knights apparently hadn't forgotten their loss the last time these teams played back in April of 2015.

Aidan Gomez was huge while hitting and pitching even without the win. He tossed three innings while giving up just one earned (and five unearned) runs off five hits. He has been consistent recently: he hasn't given up more than one walk in four consecutive appearances. He was also stellar in the batter's box, scoring three runs and stealing a base while going 3-for-4. Those three runs gave him a new career-high.
In other batting news, Sebastian Heredia was cooking despite his team's loss, getting on base in three of his five plate appearances with one home run, three runs, and three RBI. He continues to improve, besting his previous point total in each of the last three games he's played. Dylan Salcido also deserves some recognition as he scored his first run of the season.
Even though they lost, Agua Fria kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 12 hits. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now got at least eight hits in three consecutive contests.
Agua Fria has traveled a rocky road recently, having lost six of their last seven games. That's put a noticeable dent in their 2-10 record this season. The victory got Westview back to even at 6-6.
While Agua Fria had to take the loss, they won't have to wait long to give it another shot: the pair's next game is a rematch scheduled at 3:45 p.m. on Wednesday.
