Pathfinder RVT had already won four in a row (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 4.5 runs) and they went ahead and made it five on Saturday. They put the hurt on the Palmer Panthers with a sharp 13-3 win. Considering the Pioneers have won five matchups by more than five runs this season, Saturday's blowout was nothing new.

Meanwhile, Griswold pitched 1.2 innings while giving up no earned runs or hits. Mega has been nothing but reliable on the mound: he hasn't given up more than two walks in four consecutive appearances.
