MacDade Brings A-Game, Bitters Beat Kookaburras
Fans saw a dandy of a game between the Melbourne Bitters and North Sydney Kookaburras.

The Melbourne Bitters beat the North Sydney Kookaburras, 2-1, at The Nest. Starting pitcher Connor MacDade was a big reason why. He held his opponent in check all game. Sam van den Berg finished to wrap up his 2nd save.

MacDade, who dominated for Melbourne, earned the victory to move to 2-1. He was in control the whole game, scattering 1 hit over 6.2 innings, while striking out 6. North Sydney batters could never bunch up enough hits to produce a rally.

"Connor was dictating to their hitters," said Melbourne manager Travis Mitchell.

Melbourne, at 16-20, holds down 6th place in the Intercontinental Baseball Coalition Tasman League.
