The team squeezed out an 11-9 win, turning aside a comeback by Jack’s Place, allowing only a single run in the top half of the last inning to maintain its lead.

Jack’s Place plays the loser’s bracket survivor, Banging Pitches,” for the right to a rematch with Pitches Be Crazy. The game is scheduled for 6 p.m. Sunday at the ball fields at Hemenway Park, 401 Ville Drive.

Whoever wins the loser’s bracket game will have to beat Pitches Be Crazy twice to take the title away from the undefeated team.
