Braves Rally to Top of West Division
The Bourne Braves posted their second consecutive walk‑off victory on Thursday, edging past Falmouth in dramatic fashion. John Stuetzer delivered the decisive blow with a sacrifice fly in the ninth inning that sealed a 5‑4 win.
The comeback began after the team fell behind 4‑1 early in the game. Andrew Costello sparked the rally with a solo home run in the first inning, giving the Braves a glimmer of hope.
Rustan Rigdon kept the momentum alive, singling in the eighth to set up a crucial rally. The effort was capped by Stuetzer’s ninth‑inning heroics, which sent the crowd into celebration.
Matt Bolton contributed a multi‑hit effort, finishing 2‑for‑4 at the plate, while the pitching staff limited Falmouth’s late surge.
Looking Ahead to Harwich
With the win, the Braves climbed to sole possession of the top spot in the West Division. They now turn their attention to a road test against Harwich on Saturday afternoon.
The upcoming matchup will test the Braves’ resilience as they travel to Harwich, Massachusetts, a venue that has proven challenging for many opponents this season.
