BM5 Drops Heartbreaker to Shockers 8-7


Charlestown, MA-- Seven innings were not enough as fans were treated to free extra innings in the Buttermilk Five/Shockers tilt.
The Buttermilkers (4-3) staked Chris Hogan to an early 3-0 lead, but runs were a valuable commodity as both teams scrapped to bring home the bacon.  

Brian Duncan, Chris "Lefty" Mian and Drew "I eat soup every day of the week" Morin all chipped in with hits as the BM5 played small-ball.  

The game was knotted at 6 entering the last frame and it stayed that way after seven innings.  America's Team rallied to take 2 run lead in the 8th, but the Shockers (6-1) scored when it mattered.

Stellar defense was turned in by Morin, Cory Mian, Justin Adams and Regina behind the Plate.  

Skipper Chris Hogan said, "This was one of the better games we have played.  Its a shame we couldn't pull it out, but I think we're still in good position to get some wins and make the playoffs."  Hogan also noted that he forgot to wear underwear for the game.

The Pancakes hope to get on track next Tuesday night at 8:15 pm in Dedham at Connell #1 where they will host the (3-3) Dizzy Buddha.
