The Santa Fe Fuego continue their winning ways in Raton Monday night as they rally to a 17-4 victory over the Osos.

Omar Artsen once again started off the scoring when he put one over the left field fence bringing in two runs. By the time the Fuego finished the top half of the second inning they were up 8-0. A second inning rally by the Osos put four on the board for them. 

The game went defensive until the sixth inning when the Fuego put in a 8-run rally that would shorten the game to seven innings. The inning started off with a walk then the bats started connecting with several of the Fuego hitting singles to advance base runners. 

The Osos went through four pitchers on the night with Austin Carden going the distance for the Fuego. When it was said and done the Fuego had 17 hits on the board that scored 16 runs.
