Somerville came out of the gates with 4 in the first on two big hits by Dziuba and Babb. 2 in the second on home runs by Maguire and Dziuba. And then "stole" insurance runs in the 5th and 6th with Scioli and Mendonca. Guilmette was great on the mound in his first start as an Alibrandi. He went 5 strong, striking out 6 and only allowing 4 hits. Cosmopulos and Wisner looked great in relief pitching the 6th and 7th respectively. As good of a game played by Somerville (against a really good Malden team) arguably in franchise history.

Sully, Foundas, and Tanguy combine for 11 k's and 4 hits in the season opener for Somerville. Somerville was lead offensively by Dziuba (3-3 3 runs), DesRoches (3-4 2 runs) and the guys that knocked them in Barrett (3-3 3RBI) and Babb (2-3 2RBI). Other big hits in the game were by Mendonca with a two out RBI and the new 2 hitter (and player that has taken over at 2B from the guy that is writing this) Addesa hit his first home run as an Alibrandi. Somerville would like to welcome Barrett, Addesa and Tanguy as they all took the field for the first time in an Alibrandi uniform.
