Oxford Baseball defeats Richfield Springs 12-3 on Friday

OXFORD – The Oxford Blackhawk baseball team added a non-league matchup this past Friday, taking the win at 12-3 over Richfield Springs.

Oxford used a heavy dose of runs in the early innings to help lift themselves to the victory on Friday, having 12 runs by the end of the fourth inning. Richfield Springs added a three-run inning in the fifth, but would go silent the final two innings for the road loss.

The difference was the pitching in the contest, despite only outhitting Richfield Springs by two, Oxford’s base runners – who were walked 16 times – simply took advantage of the game. Add in Oxford’s seven hits and just one error in the field and it was Blackhawk baseball on Friday evening.

Taking the loss for Richfield Springs was Brady Streid – who was pulled after 1.2 innings – having five walks and one strikeout. Matt Allison added four innings with five strikeouts and 10 walks, while Stan Bobnick added a walk in hits six pitches at the end.
