Volcanoes offense returns down the stretch

Coming into Friday’s series opener with the Campesinos, the Volcanoes offense had gone dormant, scoring just 26 runs in the seven games played in August.

But in their four games with the Campesinos this week, the Volcanoes offense which at one time led the league in scoring reawakened. They outscored the Campesinos 34-18 in the four game sweep. 

‘Sinos and Mavs split, in thick of pennant race

The Campesinos and Mavericks split four games in their week 14 series, and find themselves both in the middle of the closely packed Mavericks League standings with two weeks to go.

The Mavericks (22-20) are just .5 games out of first. Meanwhile, the Campesinos (19-22) are just two games out, with three fewer games played than the first place Senators. 

Surging ‘Sinos sweep

Twice Mante Woods came up with the bases loaded in extra innings for the Campesinos this week. Twice he delivered walk-off wins. 

There had only been one walk-off win this season in the Mavericks League — the Volcanoes last week against the Senators. With their two in Week 12, the Campesinos finished off a three-game sweep and are now only .5 game behind the Mavericks for first place.
