The Spinners advanced to 5-0 on the season with a 6-1 win over the Red Sox. Despite playing with a short bench and w/ only eight fielders for one inning (due to an incorrect ruling -rule 6.10 of the MLB) Cambridge held onto the lead and widened their first place lead.

Bryan Goossens pitched a complete game, giving up one earned run on four hits, while striking out seven. Isaac Valdiviezo had two hits and scored twice to lead the offense. Mike Tufo and Ryan Feeney each had two hits and Mark Killoren drove in a run.

Zachary Walker had three strikeouts for the Red Sox and scored the team's only run in the fourth. Nick Radcliffe had two hits for Middleboro.

Bryan Goosens had a debut for the ages, leading the Spinners to a dramatic 1-0 win over the White Sox in extra innings. He went seven innings, giving up just two hits while striking out ten. He helped his own cause by picking off a base runner in the fourth and the great fielding of Matt Gioia and Danny Caceres helped keep the White Sox off the board.

Isaac Valdiviezo scored the lone run of the game in the eighth, after he was hit by a pitch, moved to second on a Ricky Salvia sacrifice and scored on a Mark Killoren sac fly.

The White Sox loaded the bases in the bottom of the inning with no outs, but Pat Clapp shut down the rally with three consecutive strikeouts.

Juan Carlos Ulloa pitched five and two thirds innings, striking out six in the no decision.
