Mon, 30 June, 7:30PM, at Rogers Park
Brighton Braves 7, East Boston Knights 6
Braves almost blow another one but manage to hang on for the 7-6 win over EBK at Rogers.
Braves jump out to a 7-1 lead after 5, culminating with 4 runs in the 4th on a 2-run single by Billy Uberti and a 2-run double by Smith. Ryan cruised through 5 allowing 1 R on 5 hits but ran out of gas in the 6th as the Knights offense plated 5 on 4 hits, BB and HP. Greeley came in to stop the bleeding by way of a K and a fly-out. Smith shut the door in the 7th to preserve the victory, striking out the side.
Glantz (3-4, 2 2B, 2 R) and Pekor (2-3, RBI, R) each had multi-hit games to lead the Braves offense.
Lebron (3-5, 2B, 2 SB, R) and Mercado (2-3, 2 2B, 3 RBI, R, BB) led the Knights offense. |
