Baseball Recap: Westerly Takes a Loss

Westerly fell victim to East Providence and their airtight pitching crew on Wednesday. They wound up with the same score they had in their last game (5-0), but sadly the team found themselves on the wrong side of the score this time.

Meanwhile, East Providence is set to square off against their familiar foe Bishop Hendricken at 4:00 p.m. on Thursday.
