Pembroke Earns 5-4 Win
The Porch Geese earned a hard-fought, 5-4 win in 16 innings at Gaels Park. To do so required withstanding a fine effort from Bridgewater pitcher John Smith. Smith went 6 innings and allowed 1 run. Juan Nunez earned the win after being summoned from the bullpen. The right-hander allowed no runs on no hits in 2.1 innings. He upped his record to 4-8. Pembroke has run its win streak to 4 in a row.

Doug Fisher helped out the Pembroke cause in the top of the eighth inning with a 2-run triple. For the game, the shortstop went 2-5 with a triple and 2 walks, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once.

"I like the grit of this ballclub," Fisher said.
