Unfortunately, that's the second time they've come up short against the Patriots this season, as they also lost their prior matchup 10-0 last Tuesday.

At the plate, Griffin saw four different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Albert Casmere, who scored a run while going 1-for-3. Jymarion Street also deserves some recognition as he got his first hit of the season.
Griffin's loss dropped their record down to 1-9. As for Northside, the win was the third in a row for them, bringing their record for this year to 10-4.
While Griffin had to take the loss, they won't have to wait long to give it another shot: the pair's next game is a rematch scheduled at 5:30 p.m. on Friday.
