Chiefs Win 5th Straight

The first place Andre Chiefs won their fifth straight Intercity League game on Thursday night in Woburn 12-4 to raise their record to 6-1 on the young season.

Former UMass–Amherst Captain Jared Freni went five innings to get the win. UMass teammate Rob Machado and Tufts University righty Pat O’Donnell of Worcester each worked a scoreless frame.
