Bethlehem Plowboys 8   CT Sliders 0

The Plowboys took the W over the CT Sliders on a hot, muggy, wet, any type of condition possible night Thursday in Waterbury, winning 8-0.

The game was tied at 0 through 4 innings but the Plowboys got the bats going in the 5th, Jarrett Michaels hit a ball about 400 feet with the bases loaded… in the sky which dropped between 3 sliders scoring all 3 runners. Greg Campbell and Nate Cormier chipped in 2 hits and 2 runs scored apiece and Ian Schmidt roped an RBI single in the 7th. Dylan Chung relieved Sibilia in the 6th, allowing 1 hit and striking out 3 over 2 innings of work to shut the door for Bethlehem.
