WESTBROOK – Kyle Heath scored from second base on a fielder’s choice in the bottom of the seventh inning to give Westbrook a 4-3 win over Portland in an SMAA baseball game Saturday.

Portland (5-6) tied the game with three runs in the top of the seventh, but Heath led off the bottom of half with a walk and moved to second on a sacrifice. Derek Bouchard was intentionally walked, and Zach Bean followed with a grounder behind second base that nearly resulted in a double play, but the throw to first was wide as Heath raced home for the winning run.
