LAST NIGHT

  • Chatham posted a 5-4 victory over Orleans and Brewster lost to Hyannis, meaning the A’s head into the all-star break with a six-point cushion for second place . . . Chatham’s Tom Milone allowed two runs in six innings and the A’s held on for the win . . . Jermaine Curtis went 2-for-5 with three RBI
  • The race for second in the West is suddenly closer than it is in the East . . . Cotuit exploded for a 13-1 victory over Falmouth, and with Hyannis’ win, Falmouth has just a four-point lead . . . Cotuit’s Curtis Dupart paced the offensive attack with a 3-for-4, three RBI night . . . Two weeks ago, Dupart was hitting .196, but he’s now at .242 . . . The freshman from Georgia Tech was a 31st-round pick out of high school
