Nighthawks Fielding Miscues Lose 4-3 (By Andy Hutchison of the Newtown Bee)
The Nighthawks overcame four errors against Stratford but couldn’t shake off three fielding miscues against Weston in a 4-3 nine-inning loss on May 7. The Nighthawks made some strong plays in the field, too, with first baseman throwing home to catcher DeFelice to nab a base runner trying to score in the opening inning, DeFelice throwing to second baseman Goyette to catch a would-be base stealer, and Braun making some solid plays at third base, including a dive to snare a slightly off-line throw from the outfield to save a run. Goyette doubled and drove in a run, and Miller had an RBI.
