It can be hard to translate regular season success to the playoffs, but Grafton had no problem doing just that on Sunday. They narrowly escaped with a victory as the team sidled past the Somerset Berkley Regional Raiders 3-2.
C.J. Chagnon spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: he surrendered just two earned runs on three hits and racked up nine Ks.
On the hitting side, Grafton's win was truly a team effort as five different players contributed at least one hit. One of them was Haylan Oberg, who went 1-for-3 with two RBI and one double. That's the most RBI Oberg has posted since back in April.
Grafton is on a roll lately: they've won four of their last five contests. That's provided a nice bump to their 13-8 record this season. Those victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 8.0 runs over those games. As for Somerset Berkley Regional, they now have a losing record of 10-11.
As of now, neither Grafton nor the Raiders have any future games scheduled.
