LYNN, Mass. – The North Shore Spirit extended their winning streak to three Friday with a 6-4 come-from-behind win over the Bangor Lumberjacks in Northeast League action at the New Fraser Field.

Tim Hart picked up the win in relief and Ryan Bicondoa worked the ninth for his third save.
With Bangor leading 4-0 in the eighth, North Shore loaded the bases with no outs. Frank Charles’ infield grounder would score a run when Lumberjack pitcher John Rohlfing made an errant throw to the plate.
Joe Hastings followed with a sacrifice fly and Brian Macchi and Onix Mercado each added an RBI single. Yuri Sanchez then doubled to the gap in right-center, plating Macchi and Mercado and giving the Spirit a 6-4 advantage.
Bangor put two on the board in the first. Derry Hammond drove in a pair with a single to left.
The Lumberjacks added to their lead in the second on a leadoff double by Willie King and an RBI single by Brad Hargraves.
