Mystic Schooners 8, Ocean State Waves 5
The Mystic Schooners (20-16) defeated the visiting Ocean State Waves (16-22) in a comeback win of sorts at Fitch High School on Wednesday evening. Schooners starting pitcher Jack DiLauro (College of the Holy Cross) threw five innings of one-run work in his team’s win (5 hits, 0 walks, 6 strikeouts), and fellow starter Chris Chaney (University of Maryland) similarly tossed five innings in his third start of the season for the Waves (6 H, 4 earned runs, 3 BB, 5 K).
A two-run home run off of the bat of Mystic catcher Michael DeMartino (Southern Connecticut State University), his sixth home run through just one month with the team, gave his squad an early lead that would be tied in the visitor’s half of the second inning via an RBI double by Ocean State right fielder Ian Ostberg (Quinnipiac University). The home team reclaimed a 3-1 lead in the bottom of the fourth thanks to an RBI single by third baseman Daniel Crossen (Northeastern University) that would be extended to 4-1 in the fifth by way of an RBI base hit from center fielder Tucker Flint (University of Maryland).
In a wild eighth inning, the Waves tied the game once again in the visitor’s half of the inning via a three-run home run launched by catcher Nicholas Cimillo (Rutgers University), but the Schooners scored four runs of their own in the home half of the eighth to take an 8-4 lead with the help of an RBI single from Crossen and a three-run homer by shortstop Stanton Leuthner (Stony Brook University). Ocean State third baseman Luis Atiles (Lenoir-Rhyne University) jacked a solo home run of his own in the top of the ninth, but it would not be enough to overpower Mystic in this ballgame.

Newport Gulls 11, Bristol Blues 3
The Newport Gulls (20-17) blew out the visiting Bristol Blues (11-26) to simultaneously extend their winning streak to four wins and hand the Blues their fifth consecutive loss at Cardines Field on Wednesday night. Gulls starting pitcher Grayson Moore (Vanderbilt University) was handed his second win of 201 with a great outing (5.1 IP, 4 H, 1 ER, 1 BB, 5 K), and fellow starter Garrett Coe (University of Connecticut) bore his second loss in as many starts for Bristol (4 IP, 10 H, 5 ER, 4 BB, 3 K).
A top-of-the-first-inning error committed by Newport scored the Blues’ first run of the night, but the Gulls promptly tied things up in the home half of the inning. A solo home run by Newport right fielder Sam Cochrane (College of Charleston) and a wild pitch gave the home team a 3-1 lead through two innings and an error in the fourth inning plus an RBI single by shortstop Chase Achuff (Rollins College) extended it to 5-1.
