The Yarmouth-Dennis Red Sox get 12 strikeouts from Duchene, win 1-0 over the Orleans Firebirds


An ace performance by Kevin Duchene spurred the Yarmouth-Dennis Red Sox (2-1) to a 1-0 win over the Orleans Firebirds (1-2) on Saturday at Eldredge Park.

The Yarmouth-Dennis Red Sox got the win thanks in large part to Duchene's dominant, 12-strikeout performance. The Yarmouth-Dennis Red Sox's pitcher tossed seven innings of shutout ball and allowed only one hit.

Kyle Twomey couldn't get it done on the mound for the Orleans Firebirds, taking a loss. He lasted just five innings, walked none, struck out one, and allowed one run.
