After having lost a blowout in their previous game against Carl Hayden Community, Fairfax was happy to have turned things around on Friday. They blew past the Washington Rams 16-6. The result was nothing new for the Stampede, who have now won eight contests by ten runs or more so far this season.
Daniel Alaniz made a big impact no matter where he played. On the mound, he struck out eight batters over six innings while giving up just one earned (and five unearned) runs off six hits. Fairfax is 6-3 when Alaniz allows three or fewer earned runs, but 6-7 otherwise. Alaniz was also solid in the batter's box, going 4-for-5 with one triple, one run, and one RBI. That's the most hits he has posted since back in March.
In other batting news, the team relied heavily on Nathaniel Pineda, who went a perfect 2-for-2 with three RBI, one triple, and one run. That triple marked the first that he has hit this season. Marsellis Garcia was another key player, going 2-for-5 with three RBI, two runs, and one triple.
Fairfax always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .568. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Washington only posted an OBP of .346.
Fairfax has been performing well recently as they've won seven of their last nine games. That's provided a massive bump to their 12-10 record this season. The victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 12.7 runs over those games. As for Washington, they dropped their record down to 6-11 with the defeat, which was their seventh straight on the road.
As of now, neither Fairfax nor the Rams have any future games scheduled.
