Kairo Mitchell took his goal tally to five in the last three games with a brace as Rochdale beat Maidenhead 3-1 in the Vanarama National League on Tuesday.
Mitchell netted either side of the break after Ryan East had put Dale on course for their fourth successive win with an 18th-minute opener at the Crown Oil Arena.
Joseph Ajose pulled one back for Maidenhead on 61 minutes after team-mate James Golding had earlier seen an effort tipped onto the post by David Robson.
Rochdale also hit the woodwork in the second half through Connor McBride.
