Nine runs in one inning. That second inning Thursday night at Mansfield Stadium is probably what the Riverdogs would most like to forget after dropping their second straight to Capital Area.

Ryan Winchester pitched over six innings, went two-for-two at the plate, and still wasn't the only story from Thursday's game.

The Trenton Acadians were down four runs with two innings left — and somehow, that's when things got interesting.

Nine strikeouts, one hit allowed, and a final score that triggered the mercy rule. Matt Turcotte had himself a Wednesday night at Mansfield Stadium.

Andrew McKenney held Post 28 to just one hit Monday night — and the Riverdogs are still perfect on the season at 10-0

Aidan Ouellette stepped up with three RBIs when it counted, and Kyle Johnson slammed the door with five strikeouts in relief.

Hollis Grindal scored three times in the first game, then drove in four more in the second — the kind of day at the plate that people in the stands don't forget quickly.

A 2-1 squeaker followed by a 12-0 blowout — same day, same team, two very different kinds of wins for the Trenton Acadians.

Eight runs, a triple, a couple of doubles, and a pitcher who walked nine but still came out with the win — Senior Legion baseball is something else.

The excitement at the field was electric as the Acadians battled back and secured two impressive wins!
