Malcolm Babcock impressed in the 15-8 New Rochelle win over Walnut Park. Babcock, who is tied for 4th in the StC in bases on balls with 42, went 3 for 4 with a home run, 2 singles, and a walk. He scored 2 times and drove in 3. Drew Yarussi came out of the bullpen to earn the win. The right-hander allowed 2 runs on 4 hits in 2.2 innings. His record now stands at 1-2. The Purple Wave improved to 36-19.

The Purple Wave got a big hit from first baseman Eric Blanset. Facing Walnut Park pitcher Marc O'Brian in the bottom of the sixth, Blanset pounded a 2-run double to left. His 10th double of the season put the Purple Wave ahead, 8-5.

"It was a solid team effort and we'll try to keep this momentum going," Babcock told reporters after the game.
