Stephen Fife and 2 others shut out Reading 2 - 0 Sunday (Photo Jason Gendron) |
Stephen Fife, Seth Garrison and Blake Maxwell combined to hold the Reading Phillies to just 5 hits and the shutout win 2 - 0.
Fife lead the way with 5 strong, efficient innings, only giving up 3 hits. Fife spotted his 91-92 MPH fastball all day, working ahead in most counts. Fife said after the game he had "some cut" to his 4 seam fastball "for whatever reason", but got a lot of contact and a lot of outs with it.
Will Middlebrooks, who went 4-4 Saturday, followed up that performance with a 1 - 3 day, including a leadoff triple to the left center gap. Middlebrooks, between Saturday and Sunday went six straight at bats with single, single, home run, double, double and the triple. With Middlebrooks on 3rd, Wil Vasquez went after the 1st pitch fastball offered by Phillies losing pitcher Kissock, and promptly sacrificed Middlebrooks home for the Sea Dogs 2nd run of the game.
Alex Hassan continued his hot streak, going 2 for 3, scoring the Dogs 1st run of the day. Hassan, the Massachusetts native, is now 8-14 for a .571 average.
The Sea Dogs stay right here for the next series, as they face the New York Yankees AA affiliate, Trenton Thunder Monday through Wednesday. Monday night the two teams will wear the MLB uniforms of the Boston Red Sox and Yankees in Turn the Clock Ahead night at Hadlock.
