Middleboro Beats Taunton, 5-1
Joe Gower, who is tied for 8th in the MA-SS with a 4.18 ERA, was terrific for the Middleboro Minutemen in his team's 5-1 triumph over the Taunton Brum Bombers. His performance earned Gower rave reviews. The 5th-place Minutemen now sit at 77-78.

Brice McDaniel had a big 3-run home run for the Minutemen in the bottom of the third inning. With Middleboro leading 2-1 and runners on 1st and 2nd, he sized up a cutter from 28-year old right-handed pitcher Brian Pavletich and punished it. The result was his 23rd home run of the season, which put the Minutemen on top, 5-1.

"I just tried to put the barrel on it," said McDaniel.
