Behind a solid performance from second baseman Joseph Wilder, the Halifax Hitmen defeated the Taunton Brum Bombers, 6-3. Wilder went 1 for 3 with a home run, a walk, and was hit by a pitch, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 3 for the Hitmen. Halifax reliever Sam Lansdown snagged the win, upping his record to 5-2. Antonio Flores shouldered the loss. The South Shore-leading Hitmen have a record of 75-62.

The game was still up for grabs in the bottom of the ninth. With two out, Wilder hit a sinker from Antonio Flores for a 3-run home run. The Hitmen, in dramatic fashion, had a walk-off win.

"That was high adrenalin and it was fun," Wilder said.
