NORTH ADAMS, Mass. -- NECBL All-Star Matt Koperniak went 2-for-5 with a double and drove in three runs Saturday night as the North Adams SteepleCats went into the All-Star Break with a 13-10 win over New Bedford at Joe Wolfe Field.

 

Anthony Clark went 2-for-2 with an RBI in his fourth game with the club this summer.

 

All-Star Joseph Porricelli drove in a pair of runs and scored twice, and fellow All-Stars Scout Knotts and Tre Kirklin each had a hit and an RBI in North Adams' 10-hit attack.

 

Late-season addition to the SteepleCats' pitching staff Chris Radovic earned his first win with two innings of relief out of the bullpen.

 

North Adams (24-15) maintained its one-game lead over the Upper Valley Nighthawks for first place in the New England Collegiate Baseball League's Northern Division.

 

The 'Cats and the rest of the league are idle on Sunday as the All-Star Game is played in Montpelier, Vt.

 

North Adams is back in action on Monday when it travels to face the Valley Blue Sox. Its home regular season finale is Tuesday against Keene.
