Sandwich came tearing into Monday's contest with nine straight wins (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 4 runs), and they left with even more momentum. Their pitcher stepped up to hand the Rockland Bulldogs an 8-0 shutout. That's the second time they've managed to beat them this season, as they also won 8-2 back in April.
Joe Coughlan made a splash no matter where he played. He didn't allow a single earned run while striking out six over seven innings pitched. He has been consistent recently: he hasn't tossed less than six strikeouts in three consecutive appearances. He was also stellar in the batter's box, getting on base in four of his five plate appearances with two stolen bases, one run, and one double.

In other batting news, Luke Morrison was excellent, going 2-for-3 with three stolen bases. Those three stolen bases gave him a new career-high. The team also got some help courtesy of James Niemiec, who went 1-for-3 with one stolen base and one run.
Sandwich pushed their record up to 13-5 with the win, which was their fourth straight on the road. The road victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 0.8 runs on average over those games. As for Rockland, this is the second loss in a row for them and nudges their season record down to 7-11.
