Battle Creek, Mich. – The Battle Creek Bombers offense erupted for 12 runs on 17 hits in game two against the Kenosha Kingfish, as they would sweep the Kingfish with a 12-3 victory Thursday night.

The Bombers (22-15) swept Kenosha for the first time this season, as they would end their season series with the Kingfish 4-4.

Battle Creek went to work offensively, with eight different Bombers recording hits.  Five different players recorded multi-hit games, with four recording multiple RBIs.

All three of the Arkansas State players (Alex Howard, Justin Felix, Winston Welch) recorded two RBIs.  Felix would go 3-5, Howard 2-5, and Welch drove in his two runs on sacrifice flies.

Cody Hawken (University of Portland) had his first three-hit game, going 3-4 with two runs batted in.  Nick Walker (Austin Peay State University) also recorded a three-hit day, as he extended his hitting streak to 12 games.
