Pitcher's Duel Expected as Anglers take on Y-D
![]() photo by Graham Harboe/Chatham Anglers Tommy Lawrence (Maine) will look to remain unbeaten as he takes on the Y-D Red Sox. Lawrences' counterpart on the mound will be Savas, who is also 3-0 on the season. Savas has made seven appearances (five starts) for the Red Sox, and holds a 3.30 ERA with 32 strikeouts and only seven walks. Savas has made one start against Chatham this season, where he picked up the win after allowing three earned runs and striking out seven in Y-Ds 6-4 win against the Anglers. Savas' best start came against Harwich on July 18, where he only allowed five hits and one run while striking out 12 over eight dominant innings. After only mustering one hit against Brewster on Tuesday, the Anglers offense will look to bounce back against Savas and the Red Sox pitching staff. "I don't think we were very focused, but hopefully we will come back strong and focus," Schiffner said. Jimmy Pickens (Michigan State) has been hot at the plate, hitting for an even .500 average over the past week. During that span he has three home runs, two doubles, and six RBI. Connor Joe (San Diego) continues to be a mainstay in the middle of the Anglers lineup, and is hitting .400 over the past week. The Anglers are entering the home-stretch of the regular season, and are currently in a stretch of nine games in eight days before the end of it. With six games left to play, five of them come against East Division opponents. "These games are important. We are in a good position in the standings, but we would still like to win these games," Schiffner said.
