Westhill extended their losing streak to six on Saturday, dropping their season record down to 5-13 in the process. They lost 10-4 to the New Canaan Rams. Unfortunately, that's the second time they've come up short against the Rams this season, as they also lost their prior matchup 10-0 back in April.
As for New Canaan, the win got them back to even at 9-9. They not only won on Saturday, but they posted their biggest win since April 15th (when they won 7-0).
For New Canaan's part, Stuart Hellmann spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: he surrendered four earned runs on 13 hits and racked up eight Ks. Hellmann also tossed a walk, which is notable because the Rams are undefeated when he allows at most one walk, but 6-9 otherwise.
At the plate, the team relied heavily on Gianluca D'Andrea, who went 1-for-2 with one home run, three RBI, and one stolen base. That home run was his first of the season. Thomas Shullman was another key player, going 2-for-4 with three RBI, two runs, and one double.
