The Scrappers are 3-0; Terryville is 0-3.
Burlington Hunters  1   Winsted Whalers  0

In a classic pitchers’ duel at Walker Field in Winsted, Burlington’s Andrew Bunger came out on top. Bunger threw just 77 pitches in a four-hit shutout of the Whalers on Thursday, striking out four while walking none. Dan Connelly pitched very well for Winsted, tossing a five-hitter with six K’s. The lone run of the game came on a bases-loaded, double-play ground ball by Adam Peters, scoring Brett Johnson in the third. Sean Shanley had two hits for Burlington.
Brass City Brew  8   Prospect Homers  1
After 2 rough starts to the year, the Brass City Brew earned their first win of the season against the Prospect Homers at Bucks Hill Park 8:30 Thursday night.  Brass City jumped out quick with a 5 run bottom of the first.  After a lead off double by Brass City’s Mike Veronneau, Steve Carosella drove in the first of 5 runs on a rbi single.  A few batters later, with the bases loaded, Mike Padovani hit a sreamer to deep center for a 3 rbi base clearing double.  Brass City would tack on three more runs in the bottom of the 5th with back to back hits on a rbi double by Justin McCulloch and a 2 rbi single by Eric Rovinetti.  Eric Gormley pitched a solid outing for the win.  Bob Wright drove in the only Homers run on a rbi single in the top of the 5th.
