Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Winters). They never let the Colusa RedHawks get on the board and left with a 16-0 win on Friday. The Warriors not only won on Friday, but they posted their biggest win since February 23, 2024.

Boston Jones made a splash while hitting and pitching. He didn't allow a single earned run and allowed only one hit while striking out nine over five innings pitched. He also tossed no earned runs, which is notable because Winters is 2-1 when he allows at most two earned runs, but 3-8 otherwise. Jones was also stellar in the batter's box, getting on base in three of his four plate appearances with four RBI, two runs, and one stolen base. Those two runs gave him a new career-high.

In other batting news, Julian Herrera was a standout: he scored two runs and stole two bases while going 1-for-2. What's more, he posted two RBI, the most he's had since back in May of 2024. Everett Beason was another key player, scoring three runs and stealing two bases.

Winters always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .556. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Colusa only posted an OBP of .211.

The victory (which was Winters' fourth in a row) raised their record to 5-9. They've had to fight for that success though, as they only beat their opponents by an average of 4.5 runs across that stretch. As for Colusa, they are on a 16-game losing streak (dating back to last season) that has dropped them down to 0-15.

Both squads are looking forward to the support of their home crowds in their upcoming games. Winters will welcome Pierce at 4:00 p.m. on Tuesday. The Warriors are facing the Bears at the right time seeing as the Bears are stuck on a seven-game losing streak. As for Colusa, they will look to defend their home field on Tuesday against Paradise at 4:00 p.m. The RedHawks' pitchers better be ready for this one: the Bobcats have averaged an impressive 6.6 runs per game this season.
