The Somerset Patriots defeated the New Hampshire Fisher Cats in game four of a six-game series at TD Bank Ballpark in Bridgewater, N.J. on Friday by a score of 5-3.

The Patriots won their seventh game in a row, the longest active win streak in the Eastern League. Somerset improves to 15-1 against New Hampshire this season. With the win, the Patriots won their second straight series. Somerset improved to 6-6-3 in series this season. Somerset played in front of its 14th sellout at TD Bank Ballpark this season.

LHP Ben Shields (5.0 IP, 3 H, 2 R, 2 BB, 7 K) earned his first win in his third start of the season.

Shields became the first pitcher in Double-A team history to strike out four batters in one inning, when he did so in the first. Somerset is 3-0 on days in which Ben Shields started. Through three starts, Shields has pitched 13.0 IP over which he has allowed 12 H, 4 R, 5 BB and recorded 20 K.

RHP Kelly Austin (1.1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 1 K) recorded four outs on four batters faced to earn his team-leading sixth save in his sixth save opportunity of the season.

2B Dylan Jasso (1-for-4, R, RBI, HR) crushed his career-high 12th home run of the season, a solo shot to leadoff the fifth inning.

Jasso hit his career-high 12th home run in his 76th game of the season, after he homered 11 times in 120 games in 2024. Jasso ranks fourth in the Eastern League in TB (132), sixth in HR (12), RBI (44), H (75), seventh in R (46), and 10th in SLG (.462) and OPS (.801).

RF Cam Eden (1-for-4, R, RBI, HR, K) crushed his first home run of the season in the sixth.

Eden hit his second home run as a member of the Yankees organization and his first home run since 9/11/24 vs. LHV with Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.

DH Brendan Jones (1-for-2, 2 RBI, 2 BB, 2 SB) led the team in RBI with an RBI-walk in the second and a run-scoring single in the fourth.

During this seven-game win streak, which began on 7/4 vs. REA, Jones is 7-for-20 (.350/.519/.700) with 6 R, 4 XBH (2 2B, 1 3B, 1 HR), 7 RBI, 7 BB and 4 SB.
