Chaparral won the last time they faced Hot Springs and things went their way on Tuesday too. Chaparral was the clear victor by a 15-2 margin over Hot Springs. The result was nothing new for the Lobos, who have now won six games by seven runs or more so far this season.

Carlos Torres was incredible, going 2-for-4 with one home run, three runs, and four RBI. Michael Molina was another key player, scoring two runs and stealing two bases while going 1-for-3.

Chaparral always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .559. They are a perfect 5-0 when they post an OBP of .513 or better.

Chaparral is on a roll lately: they've won six of their last eight matchups. That's provided a nice bump to their 8-4 record this season. The victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 12.0 runs over those games. Hot Springs' defeat dropped their record down to 3-2-1.

Looking ahead, Chaparral will host Eunice at 3:00 p.m. on Thursday. Eunice will roll in looking for their fourth straight win, something Chaparral surely won't give up without a fight. As for Hot Springs, they will head out to take on Dexter at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday. Dexter has struggled to contain batters this season (they've allowed 13 runs per game on average), something Hot Springs will no doubt try to take advantage of.
