The Middleboro Minutemen called upon starter Dennis Nelson, and he delivered, leading his team to victory over the Bridgewater Buccaneers, 3-1. Middleboro reliever Dennis Nelson got the win, raising his record to 9-8. Dan Sheffield was tagged with the loss. The win elevated the Minutemen to 72-69.

Joe Moon came through with a big-time hit for Middleboro. The first baseman smacked a 2-run home run in the top of the eighth inning to give his team the lead, 2-1. It was his only hit, but it was clutch.

"I found a nice groove out there," said Nelson.
