Rowley 5 Beverly 0

The Rowley Rams beat the Beverly Giants 5-0 behind some great pitching by Matt Warden. Warden was outstanding going the distance giving up just 3 hits and 3 BB's with 4 K's. Rallies were few and far between but Warden worked his way out of a 1 out bases loaded jam by inducing the inning ending 6-4-3 double play in the top of the 5th. Rowley couldn't get much goiing early but posted 5 unearned runs in the 5th with 4 hits a HBP and a BB. Sewyck pitched well for Beverly going 4 2/3. Scialdone, Barricelli and Boyle contributed the hits for the Giants. Offensively for Rowley, Tomasz, Johnson, Thibault, Mariani, Liguori and Willett all had 1 hit nights. The Rams are back in action tomorrow night at Eiras against Rockport while Beverly takes on Hamilton at Cooney in a makeup.
