They sure made it a nail-biter, but they managed to escape with a 7-6 victory over the Maynard Tigers. This was a revenge game for the Mohawks: when they faced off against the Tigers two weeks ago, they had to take a 8-5 defeat.

He looked comfortable on the mound, striking out seven batters over 6.1 innings while giving up three earned (and three unearned) runs off five hits. Those seven strikeouts gave him a new career-high. He was also big at the plate, going 2-for-4 with two stolen bases and one run. He is becoming a predictor of Piggott's success: when he posts at least two stolen bases the team is undefeated (and 3-8 when he doesn't).

Piggott is 4-1 when Swann posts two or more runs, but 2-7 otherwise. Another player making a difference was Clayton Poe, who went 1-for-2 with one stolen base, one run, and one RBI.

The home victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 10.4 runs over those games. As for Maynard, they are on a six-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 1-10.
