Anthony Maldonado singled and promptly stole 2nd base. Then Ryan Wagner came through with a single to plate the tying run
and send the game into extra innings. Robbie Brownschidle then came through with a 2-out run-scoring single in the 8th to secure the come-from-behind

After scraping across 4 runs in the 2nd and 3rd innings Denbigh would score 3 in the 6th to take the lead and eventually the game. At Bethel, Kyle Pelchy carried a no-hitter into the 6th inning but even it was not enough as he took the hard-luck loss.

pitched well in relief of starter Sam Hilsman. John Bayse was 2-3 with a home run and Dion Wilder chipped in a 3-run home run as well
for the Clippers. The 3-time defending district champions are now 3 games out of first place and have their work cut out
for them if they harbor any hopes of a 4th. They will try to pick up the pieces and put forth a much better effort this Friday at Jamestown.
Game time is 4:30pm. 03.28.07
- Tabb Too Strong For Grafton The Tabb Tigers played solid defense and swung the bats well as they
earned the win yesterday over the home team by a score of 7-2. Porous defense in the early innings kept the Clippers
in trouble and allowed Tabb to play with the lead the entire game. The Clippers were not without their chances though as they
stranded 8 runners on base in the first 3 innings alone. The Clippers have to put this one behind them as they host
a dangerous New Kent squad today. Game time is 4:30pm. 03.26.07
- Grafton Earns Solid Win At Southampton The Clippers used solid defense and timely hitting to earn a win against a stingy Southampton squad by a score of 7-1. Greg Tillman earned his first win of the year pitching 3-1/3 innings. He allowed 5 hits and only 1 unearned run. He also helped offensively by hitting a big 2-out, 2-run scoring single in the 2nd inning. Sam Hilsman pitched 2-2/3 innings of solid relief and John Bayse pitched a scoreless 7th. John also had 2 hits and an rbi. Dion Wilder was 2-4 with a double and an rbi. The Clippers return to action on Tuesday as they host the Tabb Tigers in an early Bay Rivers District showdown!

- Grafton Overwhelms Bruton The Clippers scored 13 runs in the 1st inning yesterday and went on
to beat an overmatched Bruton squad 20-3 to even their record at 1-1. Kyle Pelchy had a career day going 3 for 3, hitting two home runs
including a grand slam, and had a total of 7 rbi's! He was also the winning pitcher. Ryan Wagner chipped in a grand slam home run of his own and
freshman Tristan Maldonado was 3-4 with 3 runs scored in his first varsity start. Grafton banged out 17 hits total. The Clippers return to action on Friday with a road trip
to Southampton. Game time is 4:30pm. 03.20.07
- Poquoson Shuts Down Clippers The Islanders used strong pitching and defense to shut down the Clippers in the season opening game for both teams. After a rough 1st inning, John Bayse settled down and pitched well but critical errors continually allowed Poquoson
scoring opportunities. The Clippers had some opportunities to score but simply could not get the clutch hit when needed. They will get a chance to bounce back soon though as they host Bruton today. The 1st pitch is set for 4:30pm. 03.16.07
