NEWBURGH, N.Y. – The Bangor Blue Ox came from behind and edged the Newburgh Night Hawks 3-2 Tuesday night, beating left hander Gean Caruso for the first time this season.

The Ox scored both the tying run and the game winner in the seventh with two outs.

With Corey Parker at third, Carlos Mota’s double down the left field line scored Parker to tie the game at 2-2. Then Garrett Quaintance’s base hit up the middle scored Mota from first on a close play at the plate to put the Ox up for good.
