Terence Corday led the way for Docksiders, by going 4-4 with a home run, while Mike Sakata aided the winning effort with a homer of his own in batting 3-4. Reid Henderson was 3-3 for Beach Bums.
The win keeps Docksiders’ record unblemished at the top of the A Division at 5-0. The club now have a three-game lead over Paraquet Flyers and Blue Wahoos.

Elsewhere in the division, the Sunglass & Watch Shop cooled off Team Smokey 19-12. Both teams are 2-3.
Deloitte will have to wait at least one more week before finding the win column after Raggamuffins defeated them 19-12 in a C Division contest. Raggamuffins are now 3-1 while Deloitte are 0-4.
The other C Division game was a close affair, but Buffaloes stampeded their way to a 9-6 triumph. In the Women’s Division, Angels had a 24-1 laugher against Outback Skylights. Both Terry Ewart and Nikita Trott were 2-3 for Angels. Ewart knocked in three runs with her hits.
Hardknockz took the stripes off of PHC Zebras 28-8. Both Angels and Hardknockz top the division with 4-1 records while Zebras are 2-3 and the Skylights are hoping the future is brighter after a 0-5 start.
Sea Venture Mini Me’s remain one of Softball Bermuda’s three unbeaten teams with a 12-6 double up off KPMG in the Corporate League. Sea Venture is 5-0 and has a one-game lead over Athene Warriors who downed the Butterfield & Vallis Sliders 16-18.
