It can be hard to translate regular season success to the playoffs, but Hatboro-Horsham had no problem doing just that on Monday. They had just enough and edged out the Bangor Slaters 4-3. Four seems to be a good number for the Hatters as the squad scooped up a win with the same number of runs in their previous game.
Shane Mills looked comfortable as he struck out six batters over 3.1 innings while giving up no earned runs off one hit (and only one walk). He has been nothing but reliable on the mound: he hasn't given up more than two walks any time he's pitched this season.
