Ben Shafer knocked in 3 runs to help Newark beat Cottage City, 9-2. The Alpharetta, Georgia native tallied 2 singles and 1 home run.

Ben Cox recorded the save for Newark, his 1st of the season.

"We'll keep playing hard and let the chips fall where they may," said Newark manager Matt Conners.

The last-place Cannonballers have lost 4 straight games.
