The Taunton Brum Bombers downed the Halifax Hitmen, 3-1, at Rail Cats Field. Stellar pitching by Jose Berrios had a lot to do with it. The left-hander handcuffed his opponent all game. Berrios yielded 1 run over 6 innings to notch the win. He scattered 6 hits, walked 2, and struck out 8. His record improves to 6-2. After today's action, Taunton sits at 55-58; Halifax slips to 59-54.

Third Baseman Steve Mamo made an impact for Taunton, when he swatted a run-scoring double off Chris Van den Bussche in the bottom of the second. For the contest, Mamo went 1-4 with a double.

"I just tried to focus on getting that first guy out every inning," said Berrios.
