John Forbes earned his first W of the season, allowing just 1 run on 2 hits through 6 innings before the Sea Dogs mounted a late-game comeback. Saugus drew first blood, taking an early 1-0 lead in the 2nd. Crovo's leadoff walk, followed by a steal of both 2B and 3B, led to an RBI fielder's choice from Dow. The Sox quickly responded in the 3rd, taking a 2-1 lead on RBIs from Kal and Andujar. They would add another run in the 4th and 3 more in the 5th, with Andujar and Moise delivering clutch RBIs that extended their lead to 6-1 and seemingly put the game out of reach. However, the Sea Dogs refused to go down quietly. Trailing by 5 entering the 7th, their offense roared to life, rallying for 4 runs on 5 hits to narrow the gap to 6-5. With the bases loaded and the tension mounting, Steve Lippi entered the game in relief of Forbes, striking out 2 of the 3 batters he faced to secure the save and preserve the 6-5 victory.
