OAKMERE 1sts rued not making enough runs at home to Marple.
Teenager Phil Nelson (65) kept his head while others around him lost theirs as the hosts stumbled to 135 all out - a total they were destined to struggle to defend.
But they started brightly, putting 44 on for the first wicket in seven overs.
After captain Paul Yearsley was out, Oakmere stuttered to 70-3 as the visitors turned to an all-spin attack to restrict the flow of runs.
Former Cheshire slow bowler Andy Greasley made sure the Overdale Lane side fell around 50 short of a defendable score.
In reply Marple suffered a setback in the first over, but quickly set about hitting their target.
They lost four wickets for 140, but two sixes ensured they claimed maximum points to leave Oakmere hovering above the foot of the Meller Braggins Division One table, just 14 points clear of bottom team Wilmslow.
