Newton Red Sox 6, Milton Breakers 5
Three-peat
The Newton Red Sox won the American League Championship for the third year in a row defeating the Milton Breakers two games to one. Both the Sox wins came in their last at bat. In the deciding game, the Newton came back from a 5-3 deficit. Scott Ostrow went 3 for 3 and knocked in two runs along with setting up the winning run with a double to lead off the 7th. Bobby Boermeester came in in the 7th after a leadoff double and struck out the #2 hitter, then caught the final out of the inning in centerfield. Then with a man on 3rd in the bottom of the 7th, Boermeester delivered the game winning hit.
Milton battled to the final out, led by Steve Leonard who had 2 hits, 3 RBI's and at least two big inning saving catches in right field. |
