But the Bomb Squad didn\u2019t flinch: it was all Battle Creek from there on out. The Bombers offense had a field day against Jonathan Boresman, highlighted by a two-run homer by Troy White (5) and standout plate performances by Dean (3-4, bb) and Dan Dispensa (3-4, rbi).<\/p>\n<p>Troy Forton threw seven impeccable innings and gave up just two runs and struck out five, while Nolan Sanburn made his third standout appearance and struck out the side in the eighth and ninth inning.&nbsp; The Bombers finish in 1<sup>st<\/sup> place in the Southern Division with a 20-13 record in the 1<sup>st<\/sup> half.&nbsp; With the Bombers 2010 record being 20-50 overall, the Bombers complete the \u201cworst to first\u201d transformation with the win Wednesday night.<\/p>\n<p>The Bombers begin the season\u2019s second half at C.O.
