New Bedford, Massachusetts - The Vermont Mountaineers dropped a 1-0 New England Collegiate Baseball League (NECBL) contest to the New Bedford Bay Sox on Saturday evening.

Two batters after Chris Travers (Roger Williams) laid down a sacrifice bunt, Perry knocked the winning hit.

New Bedford starter Jimmy Gutowski (Eckerd) earned his first win of the summer to improve to 1-3. He went the distance, dealing nine innings of shutout ball. Gutowski allowed eight hits and one walk. He struck out three.

Vermont starter Ryan Davis (Le Moyne) also pitched very well. He hurled six scoreless innings, giving up seven hits and one walk. He struck out four.

Jim McDade (Millersville) came on in relief of Davis and pitched well despite taking the loss to move to 4-2 on the summer. The right-hander threw two and two-thirds innings, allowing just the one run on three hits. He struck out one.
