Round Mountain extended their losing streak to five on Friday, dropping their season record down to 1-10 in the process. They lost 20-13 to the Carlin Railroaders. The Knights were given a dose of their own medicine in this game as the Railroaders apparently hadn't forgotten their loss the last time these teams played back in April of 2024.
Hayden Swafford made the most of his time at bat despite the final result and went 3-for-5 with two stolen bases, two runs, and two RBI. Christian Sanora also deserves some recognition as he scored his first runs of the season.
Carlin's first victory this season bumped their record up to 1-17. Their hitters stepped up their game for this one, as that was the most runs they've scored all season.
On Carlin's side, Landon Maffo was a major factor no matter where he played. On the mound, he didn't allow a single earned run while striking out seven over four innings pitched. That's the most strikeouts Maffo has posted since back in March. He was also big at the plate, going 2-for-4 with two stolen bases, two runs, and one double.
In other batting news, the team relied heavily on Tryston Martinez, who went 2-for-4 with six stolen bases and five runs. Those five runs gave him a new career-high. Another player making a difference was Sebastian Anthony, who got on base in three of his four plate appearances with two stolen bases, two runs, and one double.
