The Lincoln Babe Ruth baseball is on a four game winning streak defeating Brunswick on Tuesday, July 26 in Wiscasset Athletic Field and Bath Thursday, July 28 in Kelley Field, Bath.

In the first 12-4 win against Brunswick, Steve Markowitz, the Lincoln coach said, “The boys played well tonight against Brunswick. It was a true team effort. Owen Cotta gave us the best pitching performance since I’ve known him, and the offense gave us an early lead. We never looked back. I’m really happy with the way that we’ve been playing.”

Lincoln’s three scoreless innings and four strikeouts ended the game early due to the fifth inning mercy rule. Finn Harkins, Henry Putnam and Sammy Markowitz opened a large lead with multiple hits early in the game.

John Splaine, Lincoln coach said, “Tonight’s win against Brunswick was a result of shutdown pitching in the first three innings. Execution of the fundamentals in the field and a few hot bats at the right time throughout the game. As well, maturity and awareness of game situations that only come from experience.”

In the second 7-2 victory against Bath, Aidan Sanborn, Owen Cotta and Cleyton Splaine got three critical hits to open a comfortable lead. Maddox Cusumano had six strong innings of pitching and Aidric Canada closed out the game.

The Lincoln baseball team is 6-2 and they will have a doubleheader on Friday, July 29 in Boothbay.
