Chatham visited Bourne in the only game on the Cape League schedule last night. The Anglers had lost two in a row, while the Braves had won two straight.
The streaks continued.
The Braves took a lead in the bottom of the fourth and never let go en route to a 5-3 victory. At 7-15, Bourne is now a game ahead of Hyannis for fourth place in the West. Chatham fell to 11-11, tied for third in the East.
Mason Robbins (Southern Miss) again led the Braves offense, going 2-for-4. He has eight hits in the three-game winning streak and is 8-for-12 in that span. Justin Leeson (Georgetown) also had two hits, John Murphy (Sacred Heart) drove in two and Colin Moran (North Carolina) had an RBI to take over the league lead with 22.
On the mound, Mike Mayers (Ole Miss), who struck out 10 in seven innings in his last start, was solid again. He struck out eight and allowed one earned run in four innings. Brandon Moore (Arkansas) was credited with the win thanks to four strong innings of relief. Hawtin Buchanan (Ole Miss) struck out the side in the ninth for his second save.
Chatham, which had won three in a row before its recent skid, was led by three hits from Andrew Knapp (Cal).
What to Watch
Brewster’s Tom Windle (Minnesota), who has beaten East leader Harwich and West leader Falmouth in his last two starts, gets another crack at a top team when the Whitecaps visit Orleans at 7 p.m. Jerad Grundy (Kentucky) is scheduled to go for Orleans.
