Print Story | Email Story
QUEBEC-The Berkshire Black Bears are having a hard time north of the border as the Quebec Le’Capitals beat them for the second game in a row Tuesday night in Quebec. The final score was 8-3. While run production remains at a minimum, the bats seem to be coming alive. There were nine Black Bear hits with center fielder Curtis Goodwin and catcher Scott Allen banging out two each. Joe Kerrigan, Chris Vasquez, Chris Sawyer and Luis Mercedes all singled. The Black Bears got on the board in the sixth when Mercedes crossed the plate on a Curtis Goodwin double. Goodwin then stole third and scored on a Vasquez single to right field. The other run came in the top of the ninth inning when Todd Brock homered. The Black Bears finish up the series tomorrow night in Quebec and then go to Allentown for a three game series with the Ambassadors before returning home Friday night against Elmira.

By Stephen DravisiBerkshires.com Sports
NORTH ADAMS, Mass. – Anna Dix Thursday went 3-for-4 with a double and a pair of runs batted in to lead North Adams Fire Department/North Adams Police Department to a 14-9 win over Alternative Living Centers and a berth in the North Adams Women’s Softball League Championship Game.
 
Abby Lear was 3-for-5 with a double for the first responders, who survived the losers bracket in the double-elimination tournament and will face Belle Ame Lashes on Monday at 6 p.m. at DiSanti Field in the first game of the title round.
 
A win for NAFD/NAPD on Monday will force a winner-take-all game; Lashes is just one win from the championship.
 
On Thursday, NAFD/NAPD jumped on top early with an eight-run top of the first and never looked back.
 
Kalley Vanuni singled up the middle, and Lear doubled to left to bring home the game’s first run.
 
Heather Morris and Carrie Brassard each singled to keep the rally going, and Dix and Kenzie Dobbert delivered two-out hits before each scored on an outfield error to make it 8-0.
 
ALC managed just one run against Dobbert in the circle through the first three innings.
