Evan Davis looked comfortable as he tossed three innings while giving up no earned runs off one hit. He has been nothing but reliable on the mound: he hasn't given up more than one hit in three consecutive appearances.
On the hitting side, Morro Bay let Quentin Crotts and Joseph Skaggs run wild. Crotts went 3-for-4 with four RBI, two runs, and two doubles, while Skaggs scored three runs while going 1-for-2. The team also got some help courtesy of Jack Deovlet, who scored two runs and stole a base while going 2-for-3.
Morro Bay pushed their record up to 7-1 with the win, which was their fourth straight on the road. The victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 2.5 runs on average over those games. As for Nipomo, they are on a roll lately: they've won three of their last four matches. That's provided a nice bump to their 4-4 record this season.
