Taking that final otep up the championship ladder after second- place finishes at two previouo tour- naments, Milton engineered five straight victorien st weekend to reign supreme at the six-team Clakson showcase. A ohortstaffed roster and spo- radic hitting did little to impede the Red Soc march to the title, with a handful of complete-gatne pitcbing performatnces and topnotcb defense proving to be an insur- mountable combinatios. StilI, there was some question if their ever-growing 'always-tbe- bridesmaid-never-the-bride' status would continue - as Milton stranded several runners in scoring position early on and fell bebind against tbe boots in the finals Sunday afternoon. "Oh yeab, that was definitely on ilu lid --îîd wlsctlsc wei c i ic able to finally pull it out," recalled man- ager George Moore. 'Me answer would corne in the top of the sixth, witb tbree walks and subsequent bits by Taylor Lawton and Pst Mastrogiocorno providing aIl of the Red Sox's pro- duction in a 4-1 triumph. Said Moore, "We lefi 10 runners on base. wbicb continues to be a probleni. but we also got some bits at the rigbt time." Adam Abearn earned the cbam- pionsbip win -going the distance for the second time on the weekend -wbile error-free fielding fac- tored beavily into the victory as well. Mlilton's title run was certainly presnure-packed svitb three of thse four wins secured by the narrowest of margîns.
