Orono Win to Pull Even With Palm Springs
When the games really matter, the Orono Oaks put on their best show, beating the Palm Springs Heat by a final score of 8-6. Sergio Portillo was 2-4 with a home run, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 3. The series now sits at 1-1 in the best-of-7 affair.

Tied up with the Heat in the top of the fourth inning, the Oaks got a boost from center fielder Jay McBurney. With runners on 1st and 3rd, McBurney saw a first pitch changeup from Mike Parker and hit a run-scoring single to break the stalemate and put Orono on top, 4-3.

"I'm just looking for a good pitch that I can hit well," said McBurney. "And not try to do too much."

The next game is set to be played for Wednesday, September 17th , 2025 at University of Maine Stadium in Orono.
