LAST NIGHT
- The playoff chase came to an end as Wareham edged Hyannis 1-0 to end the Mets’ hopes of a second-place finish. Had Hyannis won, tonight’s season finale with Falmouth would have been a winner-take-all match-up. Instead, Falmouth clinches the spot.
- Jeremy Bleich held Hyannis scoreless for six innings and Sam Whelan, Jeff Dietz and Chris Hicks combined to keep it that way . . . Wareham’s Jason Ogata hit a solo homer for the only run of the game . . . . Hyannis out-hit the Mets 7-4 and got seven strong innings from Bryce Stowell, but it wasn’t enough . . . Still a great season for the Mets, whose run was improbably to begin with, considering where they stood two weeks ago
- Brewster beat Chatham 9-3 on the strength of 6.1 shutout innings by Erik Davis and mult-hit games from Brian Kemp, Yonder Alonso, David Doss, Ryan Babineau, Danny Lima, Charlie Cutler and Ryan Hanlon.
- Y-D won its ninth game in 10 tries with a 7-1 victory over Cotuit . . . Matt Long hit a home run and Nick Romero went 3-for-4 . . . The Red Sox got a lot of pitchers some work as they ready for the playoffs, sending five to the mound
- Orleans beat Harwich 6-2 in a fog-shortened game . . . Pat McAnaney allowed two hits and one run in five innings . . . Dennis Raben and Brandon Crawford had five RBI
TONIGHT
- Last day of the regular season
- With no more playoff implications, the teams heading to the postseason are gearing up but trying to keep everybody fresh, too. All four playoff teams have TBA listed as their probable starters
- There are still some individual leaderboard spots up for grabs . . . In batting average, Conor Gillaspie is at .355 while Jason Castro is at .344 . . . James Darnell, Gordon Beckham and Sean Ochinko are tied in the home run race with eight apiece
- Tonight’s games will be the last for more than half of the 2007 Cape Leaguers . . . Here’s hoping it’s a good night and here’s hoping they all go on to big success down the road — and remember this step on the path
