3-2 Win for New Britain Over Trenton
New Britain right-hander Steve Nelson helped his team edge Trenton by the score of 3-2. Nelson kept the opposing lineup in check. The triumph puts New Britain at 55-34 for the season.

New Britain took a 3-2 lead on Mike Bane's 18th double of the season. The run-scoring double, which Bane hit in the bottom of the seventh, left Trenton pitcher Ben Sheffield visibly frustrated.

"That's baseball," said Trenton manager Cody Decker. "You're not always going to be hitting on all cylinders."
