Maine pitcher Vito Pels had a large part in his team beating the New York Titans, 7-3. The left-hander kept opposing batters in check throughout the game. Pels yielded 2 runs over 6 innings to notch the win. He scattered 4 hits, walked 0, and struck out 5. His record improves to 3-4. Masato Nishihara sewed up the save, his 6th.

The Lobster got a big at-bat from second baseman Justin Zehr. For the game, Zehr was 1 for 4 with a triple. He drove in 2 runs and scored once. In the top of the first, with runners on 1st and 2nd, he stroked a 2-run triple. His 1st triple of the season gave Maine a 2-0 lead.

Maine manager Matthew McExpos was pleased with the team's effort. "Our guys went out there and put good wood on the ball," he said.

With the victory, the Lobster record stands at 17-19.
