Stories Related to Max Clark’s Walk-off Hit Lifts Top-ranked Bangor Past Brewer

Max Clark had hit a comebacker to the mound and struck out in his first two at-bats as the Bangor High School baseball team battled Brewer Wednesday evening in the aftermath of the 30th-anniversary celebration of Mansfield Stadium held before the game. There was little offensive momentum for the senior right fielder to carry to the plate in the bottom of the seventh inning of a scoreless game, save for the fact that teammate Luke Missbrenner represented the winning run on first base with one out after being hit by a pitch. But Clark has exhibited the so-called “clutch gene” for the Rams throughout much of his high school sports career on the baseball diamond, the football field or the basketball court — and he displayed it once again on Senior Night by hitting a walk-off RBI single to give his team a 1-0 victory. Clark’s game-winner, a drive to the right-center field gap, came on the pitch after Brewer reliever Maddox Torrey balked Missbrenner to second base on his first pitch after replacing starter Grady Vanidestine. “I knew I just had to move [Missbrenner] over,” Clark said.
