Manteca put up five runs in the fourth inning Tuesday to take an eight-run lead and held on for an 11-8 non-league softball win over visiting Tokay.“The bats came through today,” Manteca coach Josh Farris said. “The heart of our order wasn’t there, but the other girls really stepped up. Some of our young girls were forced to play positions they were not used to and they did a great job.”Ashley Pease had the big hit in the fifth for the Buffaloes (6-1) with a two-out two-RBI double, scoring Koryn Menasco and Allanah Harnden.“I got up with two outs and we needed the runs,” Pease said.
