Matthew Stuart was a major factor while hitting and pitching. He struck out six batters over 8.2 innings while giving up just two earned runs off eight hits. He has been nothing but reliable on the mound: he hasn't given up more than two walks in six consecutive appearances. He was also solid in the batter's box, going 3-for-4 with one run and one double. That's the most hits he has posted since back in April.

That's the most hits Latham has posted since back in April. Another player making a difference was Jack Keyo, who went 2-for-4 with two stolen bases, two RBI, and one run.
Chelmsford has been performing incredibly well recently as they've won 15 of their last 17 matches. That's provided a nice bump to their 22-8 record this season. Those victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 2.4 runs on average over those games. As for Braintree, they moved to 20-9 with that loss, which also ended their ten-game winning streak.
As of now, neither Chelmsford nor the Wamps have any future games scheduled.
