B.C. starter Brendan Nolan (3-1), a high school teammate of second baseman Peter Woodfork and closer Mike Madden at Swampscott High, earned the win, working 5.1 innings and allowing four earned runs on six hits.
Last season, Nolan surrendered a game-winning double to Woodfork in the opening game of a doubleheader at O'Donnell Field.
