Brighton Braves 3, Somerville Alibrandis 2
Pete Lankarge pitched a gem in a big win against Somerville. Billy Fitzgerald spoiled Lankarge's no-hitter with 2 outs in the 5th. The Braves pulled out to a lead in the 2nd when Brian Sullivan hit a line drive up the middle to score Siciliano. On the same play, Somerville's Tom McDonough made a perfect throw from center to nail Cianciolo from second base to hold the Braves to only the 1 run. With runners on 2nd and 3rd and no outs in the 6th, Somerville tied it up with a single by DesRoches. Lankarge was able to work out of the inning with no further damage on 2 popups and a groundout to first. The Braves got 2 more in the bottom half of the inning on an RBI single by Farquharson and a SAC Fly by Siciliano. Brooks-Ramsdell allowed an unearned run in the 7th but was able to close it out with a strikeout with the tying run on 3rd. |
