New Britain first baseman Mike Bane contributed significantly to his team's 13-4 win over the Reading Fightin Phils. Bane, who is tied for 3rd in the EL in home runs with 18, went 2 for 5 with 2 runs scored to lead the offensive attack for the Rock Cats. Reading has now lost 4 straight.

New Britain relied on the bat of António Cháves to get the win. The third baseman ripped a run-scoring triple in the top of the first inning to put the Rock Cats ahead, 1-0. For the game, Cháves had 1 double and 1 triple in 5 at-bats.

Bane said: "We didn't really let up all day. We kind of kept going and going."
