Framingham extended their losing streak to four on Wednesday, dropping them down to 6-11. They took a 6-3 hit to the loss column at the hands of the Brookline Warriors. The Flyers were not able to repeat the success they had when they faced the Warriors earlier this season, when they won 6-5.
Michael Chagnon put in work while hitting and pitching. He looked comfortable on the mound, striking out eight batters over five innings while giving up three earned (and one unearned) runs off four hits (and only one walk). What's more, he gave up only one walk, the fewest he's had since back in March. He was also big at the plate, going 1-for-2 with one stolen base, one run, and one double.
Chagnon wasn't the only one making solid contact as three players wound up with at least one hit. One of them was Jack Maude, who got on base in three of his four plate appearances with one run.
As for Brookline, the victory (which was their third in a row) raised their record to 7-13. Those wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 6.7 runs over those games.
Like Framingham, Brookline also got a great game from a two-way player: Eli Hoffman. On the mound, he pitched two innings while giving up no earned runs off one hit. Hoffman also tossed no earned runs, which is notable because Brookline is 2-1 when he allows at most one earned run, but 5-12 otherwise. Hoffman was also solid in the batter's box, going 2-for-3 with two RBI and one run. That's the most RBI he has posted since back in April of 2025.
In other batting news, Connor Fitzgerald was excellent, going 2-for-3 with two stolen bases and two runs. He is on a roll when it comes to stolen bases, as he's now snagged at least one in each of the last three games he's played.
