AUGUSTA, Maine – Pittsfield bounced back from a Sunday loss to earn a 5-0 over Lyndon, Vt., on Monday to stay alive at the Babe Ruth 16-year-old New England Regional.

 

Eddie Ferris was a key on the mound and at the plate as Pittsfield improved to 3-1 at the regional.

 

Ferris went 2-for-3 with a triple and a dboule and drove in a pair of runs.

 

On the bump, he went six innings, striking out four and allowing just two hits before giving the ball to Ryan Stannard, who inherited two runners and retired three straight in the seventh.

 

“[Ferris] threw a very impressive six innings,” Pittsfield coach Ben Stohr said. “He had great defense behind him. Stannard came in to close it down in the seventh.

 

“I’m very proud of their maturity and how they set the tone for the rest of the group.”

 

Pittsfield got all the runs it needed in the third inning.
