#19 Leominster, 6 @ #14 Franklin, 3 – Final
– Franklin orchestrated a seventh inning rally and brought the tying run to the plate but the Panthers’ comeback bid was cut short against Leominster. Held to three hits through six innings, the hosts collected four hits in the final frame, and had a chance to tie it with two outs. Joey Goguen, Ashton Levesque, and Ethan Herndon singled to load the bases, and Jack Sullivan came through with the Panthers’ fourth hit of the inning to bring in a run, and Levesque scored on a wild pitch in the next at-bat. Leominster was able to get a strikeout to end the game, stranding runners at second and third. Sean Kryzak hit a solo home run in the bottom of the first inning for Franklin, tying the game at 1-1. Leominster regained the lead with a sac fly in the third, and then used a bases loaded walk, sac fly, and errant pickoff attempt to plate three more in the fourth.
