The Game Changed When… Craig Maddox stepped up to the plate with the game tied at 5 and runners on second and third in the top of the 8th inning. Maddox would bring both of them home to notch his 3rd and 4th RBI of the game and give New Britain the 7-5 lead. Both runs would prove to be crucial as York would battle back in the bottom of the 9th with 1 run, but the Bees would hold on for the win.
