Bartlett extended their losing streak to four on Wednesday, dropping them down to 2-13. They might be feeling deja-vu: they lost 15-1 to the Sutton Sammies, which was the same score (and result) they got the week prior. Unfortunately, that's the second time they've come up short against the Sammies this season, as they also lost their prior matchup 3-2 back in April.
As for Sutton, they now have a winning record of 8-7. That looming 15-1 mark stands out as the most commanding margin for them yet this season.
For Sutton's part, Jack Patraitis made a big impact no matter where he played. He didn't allow a single earned run and allowed only one hit while striking out ten over five innings pitched. Patraitis also tossed no earned runs, which is notable because Sutton is 3-1 when he allows at most three earned runs, but 5-6 otherwise. Patraitis was also solid in the batter's box, going 1-for-3 with one triple and two RBI. That triple marked the first that he has hit this season.
