Fair Haven had lost six straight at home dating back to last season, but on Friday they dropped their record down to 1-5 to make it seven. They lost 13-3 to the Bellows Falls Terriers. Unfortunately, that's the second time they've come up short against the Terriers this season, as they also lost their prior matchup 34-13 last Tuesday.
As for Bellows Falls, the victory was the fourth in a row for them, bringing their record up to 5-2. The wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 16.3 runs over those games.
For Bellows Falls' part, Jake Tostrup and Steven Joslyn made a big impact while hitting and pitching. Throwing, Tostrup pitched three innings while giving up just one earned (and one unearned) run off one hit. Meanwhile, Joslyn tossed three innings while giving up no earned runs off two hits. He also tossed a walk, which is notable because Bellows Falls is undefeated when he allows at most two walks, but 1-2 otherwise. At the plate, Tostrup got on base in two of his four plate appearances with one stolen base and one run, while Joslyn went 3-for-4 with two runs, one stolen base, and two RBI. That stolen base marked the first that Joslyn has snagged this season.
In other batting news, the team relied heavily on Eli Allbee, who got on base in three of his four plate appearances with two stolen bases and three runs. He is on a roll when it comes to stolen bases, as he's now snagged at least one in each of the last five games he's played. The team also got some help courtesy of Jackson Fletcher, who got on base in two of his three plate appearances with two stolen bases and two runs.
While Fair Haven 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.
