Whitman Roughed Up By Brum Bombers
Carlos Pineda powered the Taunton Brum Bombers to a win over the Whitman Panthers. The final score was 10-2. The Taunton second baseman, who leads the MA-SS in total bases with 104, was a force to be reckoned with. He banged out 4 extra-base hits, including 2 home runs and 2 doubles. Taunton starter Jordan Tafalla was credited with the win after throwing 97 pitches over 5.1 innings. His record now stands at 2-4. Pete Rainey nailed down his 1st save.

With Taunton leading 2-0 in the bottom of the second, Pineda hit a splitter from Ryan McCleskey for a 2-run home run. It was his 12th home run of the season and put the Brum Bombers ahead, 4-0.

"Every manager loves to see an offensive outburst from his team," said Taunton skipper Manager E.B..

The Taunton win streak is now 3 games.
