PITTSFIELD Missed opportunities early can come back to bite a baseball team. And nobody s got sharper teeth than Taconic.Visiting Easthampton left the bases loaded in the top of the first inning, and faced a six-run deficit by the time the Eagles.
TRUMBULL, Conn. Brayden Gutzmer drove in a pair of runs at the plate and threw four strong innings on the mound Sunday as the Pittsfield Babe Ruth 15-year-old All-Stars won a do-or-die game to advance out of pool play at the New England Regional. Gutzmer s two-run infield single in the bottom of the second was all the offense Pittsfield needed in a 2-1 win over Vermont Champion Three Corners. Pittsfield and Three Corners both started 0-2 in the four-team Pool A with three teams from each pool advancing to the knockout round that gets under way on Monday. Antonio Scalise started the winning rally with a walk, and Tommy Mullin reached on a fielders choice. Both moved up on stolen bases ahead of Gutzmer, who helped his cause by driving in a pair of runs.
