After having lost a blowout in their previous game against Eaton, Manitou Springs was happy to have turned things around on Saturday. They never let the Buena Vista Demons get on the board and left with a 10-0 win. The result was nothing new for the Mustangs, who have now won six games by six runs or more so far this season.
The team relied heavily on Hayden Martinez, who went 2-for-3 with three stolen bases, three runs, and one double. He is becoming a predictor of Manitou Springs' success: when he posts at least two runs the team is undefeated (and 2-8 when he doesn't). Another player making a difference was Ben Perkins, who went 2-for-3 with three RBI and one run.
Manitou Springs always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .559. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Buena Vista only posted an OBP of .118.
Manitou Springs' victory was their fifth straight at home, which pushed their record up to 10-8. The home wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 2.6 runs on average over those games. As for Buena Vista, they have traveled a rocky road recently, having lost three of their last four matches. That's put a noticeable dent in their 7-10 record this season.
Manitou Springs will have a chance to go back-to-back against Buena Vista: the pair will be back at it again later today.
