Coming off a second straight road victory, the Chatham Anglers (2-0) will play its first home game of the season at Veterans Field against the Falmouth Commodores (1-0) starting at 7 p.m.

The A’s came back in both of their opening road games this season, overcoming three and four run deficits, respectively. On Monday, Chatham rallied from a 4-1 hole against the Hyannis Harbor Hawks and won off a 10th inning wild pitch that sent Kaden Polcovich (Northwest Florida State) home.

Yesterday, the Anglers went down four in the first two innings to Cotuit, and recovered with two runs off sacrifice flies in the third and a four-run seventh inning. When the Kettleers tied the contest at 6-6, Jamal O’Guinn (USC) walked with the bases loaded in the eighth — the final frame of the game due to darkness.

Both road wins have come from late rallies and solid pitching down the stretch. Now, the A’s will play three games in a row at home.
