Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Agua Fria). They were the clear victors by a 17-2 margin over the Peoria Panthers on Thursday. The home team had taken home the W every time these teams have met since April 11, 2023, but that streak is no more.
Aidan Gomez and Aldo Ohlmaier did most of the damage at the plate: Gomez got on base in all five of his plate appearances with three stolen bases, five RBI, and three runs, while Ohlmaier went 3-for-5 with one home run, six RBI, and three runs. Those three stolen bases gave Gomez a new career-high. Dylan Salcido was another key player, scoring a run while going 3-for-4.
They weren't the only one making solid contact: Agua Fria kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 14 hits. That's a new trend for them: they were averaging 4.1 hits per game earlier this season, but in their last 15 games they've averaged 11.8.
