LAST NIGHT
- Chatham manager John Schiffner’s quest for the league record in career victories will have to wait another night. Fog crept in to Veterans Field last night, postponing the Bourne-Chatham game until Thursday. Schiffner has 334 career victories, tied for first in the modern era.
- Y-D became the first team to clinch a playoff spot, winning its fifth straight with a 9-1 victory over Orleans. Scott Green was lights-out for Y-D, allowing two hits and striking out 10 in six shutout innings. Buster Posey went 3-for-4, with a home run, three RBI and two runs.
- Brewster did what it needed to keep its playoff hopes alive with a 3-2 victory over Wareham. The Whitecaps scored the go-ahead run in the top of the ninth when steals leader Blake Tekotte broke for second in a first-and-third situation. The throw to second got away, allowing Michael Marseco to score from third. Brewster is now four points back of Chatham for second.
- Hyannis beat Harwich and Falmouth bested Cotuit in 12 innings, keeping the race for second in the West exactly where it was. Jason Franzblau allowed one earned in 5.1 innings and the Mets scored six runs in the sixth for the 8-3 win. Falmouth’s Aaron Crow allowed one hit and one run in six innings and the Commodores got an RBI single by Chris Hopkins in the 12th to win it.
- Jason Castro took over the league batting average lead with a 2-for-4 night. He’s now hitting .372. Falmouth’s Conor Gillaspie took an 0-for-4, dropping his mark to .357.
