14 must be Ignacio's lucky number: they beat Trinidad with that score not once but twice on Saturday. The Bobcats beat the Miners by the very same score they won with in their prior game: 14-4. Considering the Bobcats have won six contests by more than five runs this season, Saturday's blowout was nothing new.

Stoney W made a splash while hitting and pitching. He pitched 2.1 innings while giving up no earned runs or hits. He has become a key player for Ignacio: the team is undefeated when he allows at most one hit, but 2-3 otherwise. W was also big at the plate, scoring two runs and stealing three bases while going 1-for-3.

In other batting news, Joesph A and Easton S did most of the damage at the plate: A scored two runs and stole two bases while going 2-for-3, while S scored two runs and stole a base while going 1-for-3. S is becoming a predictor of Ignacio's success: when he posts at least two runs the team is undefeated (and 2-3 when he doesn't). Sonny F was another key player, scoring two runs and stealing two bases.

Ignacio kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 11 hits. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now got at least eight hits in six consecutive games.

Ignacio has been performing well recently as they've won five of their last six matchups. That's provided a nice bump to their 6-3 record this season. Those victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 11.7 runs over those games. As for Trinidad, they are on a six-game losing streak (dating back to last season) that has dropped them down to 0-5.

Looking ahead, Ignacio will take on Dove Creek at 2:00 p.m. on Monday. The Bulldogs will roll in looking for their fifth straight win, something the Bobcats surely won't give up without a fight. As for Trinidad, they will be defending their home field for the first time this season when they go up against Sanford at 3:00 p.m. on Tuesday. The Mustangs have struggled to contain batters this season (they've allowed 15.71 runs per game on average), something the Miners will no doubt try to take advantage of.
