Behind the hitting of Randy Dobson, the Whitman Panthers stopped the Taunton Brum Bombers, 14-12. Dobson hit 2 home runs, while scoring 3 and driving in 3 for the Panthers. The save went to Mike Leeper, his 23rd this season. The Panthers, at 58-68, sit in last place in the South Shore.

Corey Cates drew 1 walk for Whitman. The 27-year old first baseman had a key at-bat in the top of the fourth. With one out and the bases loaded, he broke a 6-6 tie with a run-scoring walk off Karl Kahlstorf. It was his 74th walk of the season.

"It was one of those games where both teams were swinging the bat well," Cates said.
