Burton had already won five in a row (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 13.6 runs) and they went ahead and made it six on Monday. Everything went their way against the Wallenberg Bulldogs as they made off with a 13-3 win. 13 seems to be a good number for the Pumas as the team scooped up a victory with the same number of runs in their previous game.

Pabalate was also big at the plate, going 2-for-4 with one home run, three RBI, and two runs. Burton is 12-3 when Pabalate posts two or more runs, but 1-2 otherwise.

In other batting news, Ryan Perez Say was excellent, getting on base in three of his four plate appearances with three stolen bases and two runs. He is on a roll when it comes to stolen bases, as he's now snagged three or more in each of the last four games he's played. The team also got some help courtesy of Maliek Powell, who got on base in three of his four plate appearances with two stolen bases and two runs.

Burton pushed their record up to 13-5 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 1.5 runs on average over those games. As for Wallenberg, they are on a three-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 2-4.

Both squads will have to hit the road in their upcoming games. Burton will venture away from home to face off against Galileo at 3:30 p.m. on Wednesday. The Pumas will need to watch out since the Lions have now posted at least ten runs in their last four matches. As for Wallenberg, they will head out to take on Leadership at 3:30 p.m. on Wednesday. The Griffin have struggled to contain batters this season (they've allowed 13.71 runs per game on average), something the Bulldogs will no doubt try to take advantage of.
