After losing to Oakdale the last time they met, Manteca decided to demonstrate that turnabout is fair play. The Buffaloes blew past the Mustangs 8-2 on Wednesday. Considering the Buffaloes have won seven matches by more than five runs this season, Wednesday's blowout was nothing new.
Jeremy Cross spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: he surrendered just two earned runs on seven hits and racked up 12 Ks. He has been nothing but reliable: he hasn't given up more than one walk in eight consecutive appearances.
On the hitting side, the team relied heavily on Cameron Jimenez, who scored a run while going 2-for-2. The team also got some help courtesy of Chris Chavez, who scored a run and stole a base while going 2-for-4.
Manteca pushed their record up to 15-4 with the victory, which was their sixth straight on the road. The road wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 9.0 runs over those games. As for Oakdale, with the loss, they broke their four-game winning streak and moved their record to 11-7.
