While Swansboro's victory against Dixon wasn't quite the blowout it was the last time the pair played, they still came out on top. The Pirates beat the Bulldogs on Tuesday by the very same score they won with in their prior game: 2-1. That's more bragging rights for the Pirates, who also won the pair's last head-to-head.
Nick Quinones spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: he surrendered a run (which was unearned) on five hits. He has been nothing but reliable: he hasn't given up more than one earned run in three consecutive appearances.
On the hitting side, Swansboro saw four different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Josh Scott, who scored a run and stole a base while going 1-for-2. Dean Germosen also deserves some recognition as he hit his first double of the season.
