New Milford and Berlin squared off in some playoff action on Tuesday, but New Milford had to settle for second. They fell just short of the Redcoats by a score of 2-0. Having soared to a lofty 11 runs in the game before, the Green Wave's shutout was a dramatic turnaround.
Ben Lasser was a force to be reckoned with on the mound despite the final result: he pitched six innings while giving up just two earned runs off eight hits.
New Milford has also traveled a rocky road recently, having lost three of their last four contests. That's put a noticeable dent in their 12-8 record this season. As for Berlin, they are on a roll lately: they've won six of their last seven matches. That's provided a nice bump to their 16-3 record this season.
While New Milford had to take the loss, they won't have to wait long to give it another shot: the pair will be back at it again later today.
