Scores
Bourne 4, Cotuit 2
Falmouth 5, Wareham 3
Bourne 4, Cotuit 2
Bourne to 7-3-1, Cotuit to 6-5
- Bourne got two in the first on a tw0-run double by (Stetson) Brian Pruitt and never gave up the lead
- The win was Bourne's fourth straight
- Wade Kapteyn (Evansville) earned the victory, allowing one earned run and three hits in six innings
- Cotuit's Ryne White (Purdue) went 1-for-3, putting his average at .414.
Of note, player-style: White, a sophomore who's starting at first base for Cotuit, wasn't among the league leaders in average when the night began, but he is now. He got to 29 plate appearances, the minimum to be listed on the leaderboard. His .414 average puts him second. White hails from Chicago and was a freshman all-american in 2006. He hit .452 this season to lead the team, with an OBP of .521.
Falmouth 5, Wareham 3
Falmouth to 4-7, Wareham to 1-10
- Falmouth got three in the third on a two-run shot by Matt Hague (Washington) and never looked back
- Luke Burnett (Louisiana Tech) earned the win with three solid innings of relief
- The loss is Wareham's 10th straight. Nearly all of them have been by one or two runs
- Six players had hits for the Gatemen, but they could string nothing together
Of note, player-style: Falmouth's Hague stayed hot. The junior from Washington has multi-hit games in four of Falmouth's last five, and is hitting a league-leading .429 in 10 games. He went 2-for-3 Wednesday with three RBI and his first home run. For Washington this spring, Hague hit .353 with 13 home runs. As a junior, he was eligible for the draft this year, and the Cleveland Indians took him in the 11th round. That's pretty good, but I guess he thinks he can do better. That's why he's on the Cape, either to get more money from Cleveland or have a big summer and head back to school with his stock rising.
