Manteca came out on top against Ripon on Friday thanks in part to Preston Smith's efforts. Ripon had no answer to Smith as he scored three runs and stole a base while getting on base in four of his five plate appearances.
Looking ahead, Smith and Manteca will venture away from home to square off against Patterson at 3:30 p.m. on Monday. Patterson will enter the matchup having just beaten Buhach Colony, so Manteca will have to guard against a team looking to keep the ball rolling.
