The Socorro baseball team fell to 7-7 on the season after dropping four games in the past week.
On March 30, the Warriors traveled to perennial power Sandia Prep and dropped a doubleheader 5-4 and 11-5.
On March 26, the Warriors, playing in windy conditions, fell to Estancia 25-4 and 11-3.
“It’s been a rough stretch,” Socorro coach Alan Edmonson said. “We have played a lot of games in a short amount of time and that taxes our pitching and takes a toll on us.”
Edmonson said the Warriors played better against Sandia Prep. The Warriors gave up five runs with the four of the runners initially reaching base by a walk and the other by an error. “Our pitchers are just walking too many batters,” Edmonson said.
The Socorro coach was not about to make excuses for his team when it came to its performance against Estancia.
“Both teams had to play in that wind,” Edmonson said. “I am the last guy to make excuses for my team or myself. We just have to play better.”
Socorro will be on the road Thursday at Tularosa and will face Valencia on April 6 before starting district play the following week.
