Spirited fans greeted the Middleboro Minutemen for their clash with the Whitman Panthers.

The Whitman Panthers picked up a win at Worcester Grounds, taking down the Middleboro Minutemen, 3-0. Starting pitcher Jay Johnson was a big reason why. Jason Hepburn, credited with the save, is now 1 for 1 in save opportunities.

Sean Primm, who is tied for 8th in the MA-SS with a .407 on-base percentage, had a direct impact on the outcome. Primm contributed a run-scoring single in the top of the first inning to put Whitman up, 1-0.

"At the end of the day, it's always about your starting pitcher," said Whitman skipper Manager B.P..

Middleboro has now lost 4 in a row.
