Thursday, July 22: Volcanoes 31
Senators 7
The Volcanoes set new Mavericks
League records with 31 runs on 32 hits in
their 24-run win over the Senators.
David Kyriacou went 6-for-8 at the
plate and scored five runs and Tony
Holton went 4-for-7 with five RBIs in the
win.
With the score tied 4-4 after two
innings, the Volcanoes scored six in the
top of the third to take a 10-4 lead, high-
lighted by a solo homer by Kyriacou.
A two-run double from Gabriel Cotto
and RBI-singles by Caleb Johnson and
Landen Barns helped Salem-Keizer put
up another six-spot to go up 16-4.
The Volcanoes also put up five runs in
the fifth inning, six runs in the sixth and
four runs in the ninth.
Saturday, July 24: Senators 7
Volcanoes 6
After an embarrassing defeat the pre-
vious day, the Senators came back to
defeat the Volcanoes 7-6.
Jordan Myrow knocked in three runs
for the Senators and Dustin Hamilton
got his first win of the season on the
bump, pitching 5.1 innings and striking
out eight while giving up four hits and
two earned runs.
After the Volcanoes scored a run
in the first inning, a two-run blast from
Angeddy Almanzar helped the Senators
to a four-run second inning to take a 4-1
lead.
The Volcanoes answered with a run
in the fourth, but in the bottom half of
the frame, Myrow delivered a three-run
homer to extend the Senators lead to 7-2.
Salem-Keizer slowly cut into the lead
with two runs in the fifth inning, and one
run in the eighth and ninth, but Senators
closer Matt Dunaway was able to retire
the last two batters he faced to get the
save.
Saturday, July 24: Campesinos 24
Mavericks 2
The Campesinos scored a sea-
son-high in runs in their 24-2 victory over
the Mavericks.

Colby Nealy improved to 8-1 on
the season, giving up one run over six
innings.
The Campesinos offense didn’t take
long to get things rolling, scoring seven
runs in the top of the first, three of
which came on a three-run homer from
Morrison.
Leading 10-1 after three innings, the
Campesinos put five more across in in
the top of the fourth.
Whitfield and Morrison each homered
in the top of the fifth as the Campesinos
scored seven runs in the inning to extend
their lead to 22-1.

The Campesinos hit five homers on
the afternoon and pulled off the domi-
nant three-game sweep as they defeated
the Mavericks 14-0 in the final game of
the series — the Campesinos outscored
the Mavericks 47-6 over three games.
Nick Ybarra and Eric Whitfield
knocked in three runs apiece and Austin
Crowson picked up his fourth win after
striking out nine over five innings and
giving up just two hits and no runs.
