WESTFIELD - For all of he hard work, clutch hitting and solid pitching Pittsfield had going for itself over the course of the first six innings, everything nearly came unraveled after Westfield put forth a huge rally in the seventh inning.
The Generals built themselves a tidy six-run cushion heading into the final frame, only to watch in horror as the Bombers continued to send runners across the plate. With the tying run standing on third, relief pitcher Hayden Harrington recorded the final out on a fielder's choice, a force out at second which allowed Pittsfield to exhale a major sigh of relief, as it held on for a 7-6 victory Saturday at Billy Bullens Field.
