Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Fernley). They were the clear victor by an 18-1 margin over the South Tahoe Vikings on Saturday. The high-scoring effort was just what the Vaqueros needed considering they were shut out in their previous game.
Dylon Comer spent all six innings played on the mound, and it's clear why: he surrendered a run (which was unearned) on three hits. What's more, he gave up only zero earned runs, the fewest he's had since back in April of 2024.
At the plate, Fernley got a massive performance out of Riley McCullar, who scored three runs and stole a base while going 4-for-4. That's the most runs McCullar has posted since back in April of 2024. Layne Minoletti was another key player, scoring three runs and stealing a base while getting on base in four of his five plate appearances.
Fernley always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .604. That's the best OBP they've posted all season.
The victory snapped Fernley's losing streak at five games and leaves them with a 2-6-1 record. As for South Tahoe, they are on an eight-game losing streak (dating back to last season) that has dropped them down to 0-7.
Fernley will have a chance to go back-to-back against South Tahoe: the pair will be back at it again later today.
