WEST HAVEN, CT - Centerfielder Ervin Alcantara blasted two two-run homers (3,4) and newcomer RHP Bucky Kosyk (1-0) earned the win in his first start of the year in the New Haven County Cutters 11-2 victory over the Nashua Pride, Saturday night, in the second of a four-game series at Historic Yale Field.

The Cutters pounded out fourteen hits including a two-run home run from shortstop Chas Terni (2). Overall, Terni went 3-for-5 with 3 RBI.
