OLD ORCHARD BEACH — On the heels of winning the only game of the night in the Futures Collegiate Baseball League on Monday, the Old Orchard Beach Raging Tide swept the league’s nightly awards. The standout hitter that carried the Raging Tide to a 5-2 victory over Wachusett was Graham McIntire, earning him FCBL Player of the Night honors. McIntire went 2-for-4 on the night with a double and a single. He also stole a base, drove in two runs, and scored once himself.
The Pitcher of the Night award went to a combination of the Raging Tide staff. Evan Brisentine started the game and went six strong innings, allowing six hits, two walks, and two earned runs, while striking out seven and picking up the win. He was relieved by Miguel Silva, who shut down the Dirt Dawgs over three hitless innings. Silva walked one and struck out four to pick up the save. Combined, the two pitchers threw allowed two earned runs, six hits, three walks and struck out 11 over nine innings.
The Tide’s home game against Torrington was rained out on Tuesday, but the team will be in action again tonight when it travels to Pittsfield for a 7 p.m. game against the Suns.
