In what could be a preview of the 2022 Rhode Island Connie Mack final, the division leading Bulldogs of Cranston squeaked by the defending champions, Narragansett/South Kingstown, 6-5.

With Cranston holding a 5-2 lead in the top of the fifth inning, the Lions came roaring back with three runs to tie the game at 5-5.

In the bottom of the sixth inning, catcher Ethan White led off with a double and eventually scored the eventual winning run on a sacrifice fly by Anthony Nardolillo.

Michael Smith continued his solid pitching, improving his record to 5-0 this summer. Anthony DeCotis recorded his first save of the year for the Dawgs by ending any threat by the Lions.
