The home team had won the previous three meetings between Dexter and Ruidoso, and Dexter kept the tradition alive. The Demons came out on top against the Warriors by a score of 10-6 on Tuesday. Ten seems to be a good number for the Demons as the team scooped up a win with the same number of runs in their previous game.
Kaylonie Nevarez spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered three earned (and three unearned) runs on eight hits and racked up six Ks. She has been consistent : she hasn't given up more than two walks in eight consecutive appearances.
At the plate, Melody Duran and Hannah Sanders did most of the damage at the plate: Duran went 2-for-3 with one home run, two runs, and two RBI, while Sanders went 1-for-4 with one home run, three RBI, and two runs. That's the most runs Duran has posted since back in March. Maddie Miller was another key player, scoring a run while going 2-for-3.
