Great Effort by Tindle Wasted in 5-3 Minutemen Loss
Though he had a terrific game, Josh Tindle could not prevent his team, the Middleboro Minutemen, from absorbing a loss. Halifax won the game, 5-3. Tindle hit 2 home runs. He drove in 3 runs and scored twice. Sam Lansdown was the winner in relief. His record is now 4-1. The losing pitcher was Steve Swogger. Middleboro is still trying to get off the schneid, having lost 9 in a row.

Halifax went up, 5-3, on Joseph Wilder's 20th home run of the season. The 2-run home run, which Wilder hit in the bottom of the eighth, left Middleboro pitcher Steve Swogger shaking his head.

"Bad luck's the only luck we've had," said Middleboro manager Manager B.K..
