Led by manager Chip Plante, the Tornadoes leave CanAm League opponents in their wake as they hurtle through the third month of the 2012 season. The lineup features infielder Brandon Pinckney, a .301 hitter through 30 games this season, and a gang of Massachusetts natives including outfielder Brendon Kelliher and pitcher Nick Serino. On the mound, left-handed hurler Zach Zuercher strives to surpass his league-best 14 victories from a year ago, pitching balls that break batters’ hearts with vicious curves and unfulfilled promises of candlelit dinners.

As the Tornadoes spin toward their first CanAm title since 2005 on the diamond, in the stands, fans enjoy the historic ambiance of Fitton Field, which dates back to 1905 and bears the cleat marks of legends such as Lou Gehrig and Babe Ruth.
