McLean Leads Charge, Boston Blasts Captains
2026 is shaping up to be a forgettable year for the Tampa Bay Captains.

The 17-3 Boston win over Tampa Bay was due in large part to Taylor McLean. The Whistlers right fielder hit 2 home runs. He scored 3 runs and drove in 6. The Whistlers improved their record to 83-71 with the win over Tampa Bay.

McLean had a big at-bat with a runner on 1st in the top of the first inning, when he hit a double. The Whistlers went on to win.

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