Locals Lose Coastal Plain League Braves Roanoke Rapids
Roanoke Rapids Jays linger in last place with a rough Coastal Plain League stretch. They dropped a close 9 8 decision to New Bern Bears after a six run first gave a brief lead, then a late rally fell short in an 11 1 defeat to New Bern. The Jays later split with Kinston 7 6 on a ninth inning rally, but overall the skid continued as May, Branca, and Carlton struggled on the mound.
