Alex Barrist and Evan Meier singled to start the winning rally. And Sebastian Rhoades hit a sacrifice fly to center before Nelphie Lopez worked a walk to load the bases with two out.

Barrist led North Adams' offense, going 4-for-4 with a pair of doubles. Meier was 3-for-4 at the plate, and Nicholas LoBello doubled and scored a run.
