Southampton had lost four straight at home, but on Tuesday they dropped their record down to 4-8 to make it five. They fell 4-1 to the Center Moriches Red Devils. Unfortunately, that's the second time they've come up short against the Red Devils this season, as they also lost their prior matchup 13-6 back in March.
Southampton saw two different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Jackson Romanow, who went 2-for-3 with one run. Hewie Dunne also deserves some recognition as he brought in his first RBI of the season.
As for Center Moriches, the victory made it two in a row for them and bumps their season record up to 10-2. Four seems to be a good number for they as the team scooped up a win with the same number of runs in their previous game.
On Center Moriches' side, Joe Hiller spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: he surrendered a run (which was unearned) on three hits and racked up ten Ks. Hiller has been consistent recently: he hasn't given up more than one earned run in three consecutive appearances.
On the hitting side, the team relied heavily on Luke Rebore Costanzo, who got on base in all three of his plate appearances with two stolen bases and one run.
While Southampton 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 4:00 p.m. on Thursday.
