Four different SteepleCats pitchers combined on the shutout win. Nolan Puglisi struck out four in two innings of relief.
 
In the first game of the double-header, Billy Howard tripled to right with two out in the top of the seventh to drive in Damian Rodriguez for the winning run of a 4-3 victory.
 
Howard went 3-for-3 to lead a seven-hit attack for North Adams.
 
The SteepleCats used five pitchers, including Stang, who struck out three to earn the save in the bottom of the seventh in the first action on the mound of the summer for the University of Dayton junior.
 
North Adams (21-22) finishes the regular season on Wednesday at 6:30 p.m. at Joe Wolfe Field against Bristol, Conn. The SteepleCats will face the Sanford Mainers in a best-of-three playoff series this weekend.

New North Adams Restaurant Approved for Liquor License

By Tammy DanielsiBerkshires Staff
NORTH ADAMS, Mass. — A new restaurant on Main Street, a provisions shop and a convenience store all got the nod from the License Commission on Tuesday.
 
Siblings Colleen and Sean Taylor are expanding their cuisine empire yet again with the establishment of Main & Mill in the old TD Bank. They were before the commission to apply for an all-alcohol license. 
 
The building is owned by Ginko on Main Street LLC, which has granted 20 years exclusive possession of the property to Latent Builds as the developer. Jack and Suzy Wadsworth, behind Ginko, are development partners with Salvatore Perry and Karla Rothstein of Latent.
 
The bank closed in early 2021 and purchased by Ginko late that year. Plans for the property unveiled three years ago envisioned a restaurant, retail, a park and rooftop bar. 
 
The building's hosted some pop-up eateries and is currently under construction for the new restaurant. 
 
Colleen Taylor said the restaurant will be open seven days a week serving lunch and dinner, and be open early for coffee. 
 
"It's not going to be a very big restaurant. It's about the same size as Trail House, except for Trail House has a bigger patio, so about the same seating," she said.
