Sun, 26 August, 7:30PM, at Natick - Natick HS/Mahan (Game 2 of DH)
Braintree Rockies 10, Natick Knights 9
Great see-saw contest between two playoff-bound teams. Braintree jumped out to a quick 5-0 lead, only to see Natick push across 8 runs in the 4th inning. Bobby Austin came in out the pen for the Rockies and stopped the bleeding, allowing only one run in the last 3+ innings, but the Knights clung to a 9-5 lead going into the 6th. Braintree added two runs in the 6th on a Mark Nickerson double and pushed across another 3 runs in the 7th, capped by a Paul Grammar walk-off hit. Brian Cassidy scored the winning run after knocking in the previous tying run with a double. |
