Chris Rosado (Stamford, Conn.) went 3-for-4 today to boost his batting average to .471. Jarett Mendoza (North Dighton, Mass.), Jeff Mackor (Salem, NH), Joe Kealty (Framingham, Mass.) and Mike Gambino (Garrison, N.Y.), constituting No.4, No. 5, No. 6 and No. 9 of the batting order, each had a single for the Eagles.
