Bradford Leads Hitmen to 9-4 Win Over Buccaneers
The Halifax Hitmen topped the Bridgewater Buccaneers by a score of 9-4. Leading the way was left fielder Chris Bradford. Bradford was 3 for 3 with a home run, a double, and a walk, while scoring 2 and driving in 3 for the Hitmen. Halifax goes to 35-36, Bridgewater to 38-34.

Kyle Leonard had a big 2-run double for the Hitmen in the top of the fifth inning. With Halifax leading 4-2 and the bases loaded, he got a slider from 15-year veteran Dan Sheffield and swatted a double to center. It was his 14th double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Hitmen ahead, 6-2.

"We did more than enough to get the win," said Bradford.
