Middleboro Wins, Trumping Pembroke, 9-2
Starting pitcher Joe Gower was a major factor in the 9-2 Middleboro Minutemen triumph over the Pembroke Porch Geese. Pembroke drops to 7-9.

Nick Lear had a big run-scoring triple for the Minutemen in the bottom of the fourth inning. With Middleboro leading 2-1 and a runner on 1st, he got a cutter from 26-year old left-handed pitcher Chris Bender and swatted a triple to center. It was his 2nd triple of the season, and more importantly, it put the Minutemen ahead, 3-1.

"Winning the game is always the first objective," Lear said.
