The Bats' current six-game winning streak is their longest since winning 10 straight from June 16 through 29 in the 2021 season, when they finished 26-15 (going from 2-5 to 12-5) and won the Northern Division. Keene SwampBats Andrew Hillsman Milton Dauber Michael M. McMahon

We ventured an hour or so north to take on Upper Valley Nighthawks! Kyle Peters gets the ball as the Bats look to set a new franchise record for longest single-season winning streak. Tune in to NECBL+ for first pitch at about 4:00. It'll be the Bats debut for Xavier Perez!

Something I learned from Jeremy Gray and Tricia Whitaker's classes is that when you're on air, you have to work through distractions that come your way. Last night, that distraction was an errant baseball in pregame warmups...maybe it's time to put that in the curriculum?

Today’s temperature calls for an emergency desk fan - it’s putting in generational numbers today. Anyway, Keene looks to make it three in a row at 6:35 - I’ll have the call with Augie Walters.

Without a doubt, one of my favorite games I’ve ever been lucky enough to call. 14-2. 9-0 at home. The SwampBats continue to deliver.

.Jake Hooker is off to a strong start for Keene SwampBats this summer...he has gone more than one inning in all four of his appearances, striking out seven in seven scoreless innings overall with two saves. He has allowed only four hits and has a 0.86 WHIP.
