The Bombers added a power-hitting outfielder to their lineup today, signing Cory Farris of Cumberland University for the 2011 season.<\/p>\n

Cory Farris<\/strong>: 6\u20190-205, L\/R, OF\/1B, Cumberland Univ. (JR), Florence, KY<\/em><\/p>\n

In his junior season with the Bulldogs, Farris has hit for power: he is batting an impressive .277, has belted 11 home runs, recorded 43 RBIs, and boasts a .531 slugging percentage. Farris spent his freshman and sophomore years playing for the University of Kentucky where he hit .310 before transferring over the summer. Prior to his college career, he was drafted by the Cleveland Indians in the 43rd<\/sup> round of the 2008 draft.<\/p>\n

\u201cCory can be a guy that hits in the middle of our lineup and knock in a lot of runs.\u00a0 He has posted solid number this spring and we hope he will continue that this summer with us.\u201d said Bombers assistant Coach Thad Frame.<\/p>\n

The Bombers are set to begin their 5th season on June 1, 2011 in the Prestigious Northwoods League. For tickets, fans can call (269)962-0735 or visit www.BattleCreekBombers.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
