Late Rally Not Enough As 'Cats Drop Game And Series

Hartford, CT - The New Hampshire Fisher Cats dropped the series finale with the Hartford Yard Goats 6-4 Sunday at Dunkin' Donuts Park, ending the Toronto Blue Jays affiliate's streak of four consecutive series victories.
Hartford score two runs in the first and another two in the fifth to take a 4-0 lead. In the latter frame, Ashley Graeter and Drew Weeks each had a solo home run to double Hartford's advantage.
New Hampshire broke through with a run in the sixth, but the Yard Goats countered with a run of their own in the bottom of the inning.

In the seventh, Andrew Guillote blasted a lead-off home run to left field - his second of the season - to make it 5-2, and the 'Cats added another run in the stanza to make it 5-3.
A Guillote double in the eighth scored Ryan McBroom - who had reached earlier after he was hit by a pitch - and brought the Fisher Cats within a run, but the Yard Goats scored in the home half of the inning and went on to win 6-4.
After a day off on Monday, New Hampshire returns to action on Tuesday against the Erie SeaWolves in the first of three games against the Detroit Tigers affiliate. First pitch is set for 6:35 p.m. and can be heard locally on AM 610 WGIR or online via iHeartRadio.
