Bangor came out on top against Mendon on Saturday thanks in part to the team's impressive ten-run fourth inning. The Vikings' pitcher stepped up to hand the Hornets a 13-0 shutout. Considering the Vikings have won ten matchups by more than nine runs this season, Saturday's blowout was nothing new.
Terrance Payn made a splash while hitting and pitching. On the mound, he didn't allow a single earned run and allowed only one hit over four innings pitched.

Payn was also big at the plate, going 1-for-3 with two runs and one RBI.
In other batting news, Jaret McCoy was incredible, going a perfect 3-for-3 with three runs, one stolen base, and two RBI. That's the most RBI he has posted over his last 12 games. Another player making a difference was Julian Pullins, who got on base in three of his four plate appearances with one stolen base, two RBI, and one run.
