Mesa Verde had to skate by with only a one-run margin when they last took the field, which might have inspired the 12-run drubbing they dealt Highlands on Tuesday. The Mavericks were the clear victors by a 13-1 margin over the Scots. The Mavericks might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won ten matches by seven runs or more this season.
Steven Pinola and Isaiah Shoemake were a major factor no matter where they played. Throwing, Pinola struck out ten batters over 3.2 innings while giving up no earned runs off one hit. Meanwhile, Shoemake tossed 1.1 innings while giving up no earned runs or hits. He has been nothing but reliable on the mound: he hasn't given up a single earned run in three consecutive appearances. At bat, Pinola scored a run and stole a base while getting on base in three of his four plate appearances, while Shoemake scored two runs and stole a base while going 3-for-4.
In other batting news, Mason Nelson was incredible, scoring three runs and stealing two bases while going 1-for-2. He has been hot recently, having posted at least one stolen base the last four times he's played. Another player making a difference was Aiden Marcheschi, who scored three runs and stole a base.
The win was the fourth in a row for Mesa Verde, bringing their record up to 14-3. The victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 18.0 runs over those games. As for Highlands, they dropped their record down to 3-8 with the defeat, which was their eighth straight on the road dating back to last season.
