An impressive seven-inning outing by Ian Zettle and some sound defence powered Milton to a 3-1 decision over the host Dundas Chiefs.
Now riding a three-game winning streak, the Red Sox evened their COBA record at 7-7 with the victory -- their third straight following a somewhat shaky spring stretch.
Distancing himself from a couple of rough patches earlier this season, Ian Zettle held the Chiefs in check, surrendering just four hits and collecting four strikeouts en route to securing his second league win.
Recently-acquired southpaw Brian Stewart came in for the save, striking out four batters and walking a pair in the ninth that made for a suspenseful finish.
Offensively, it was Milton's youngest and oldest who led the way.
First-year senior Nick Mazzorato punched out a pair of singles and drove in the winning run, while Joe Jurus recorded two hits as well, including a double.
RBI singles were also delivered by Steve Lauzon and Matt Tales, who continues to show improvement at the plate.
The low-scoring game was in stark contrast to the Red Sox's previous victory, when they hammered out a dozen hits to dump the lowly Mississauga North Tigers 15-2.
Showing no sign of cooling off since his productive season start, Taylor Lawton had three hits, including a two-run homer in the first.
Tales and Curt Davies drove in three runs apiece, while Kurt Mitchell had an RBI triple and Lauzon -- returning from the disabled list -- hit a single and helped cash in four runs with his savvy work at the plate.
Derek Howe earned his first league win with a solid six-inning stint.
Milton hopes to keep its winning ways going at this weekend's London Lakeside Tournament.
