It is the second-longest that a Growler has\u00a0ever gone\u00a0with no hits with Sam Carlisle&#8217;s eight last season being the franchise record.<\/p>\n<p>After a two-out double, Ware fanned his fourth batter of the game the very next at-bat ending his day after seven scoreless innings.<\/p>\n<p>Final Line: 7 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 3 BB, 4 K, 25 BF<\/p>\n<p>Ware secured his second win in the best outing of his Growlers career while dropping his ERA to just 1.53. Ware now ranks fourth in the &#8216;Woods in ERA among pitchers with 25 or more innings.<\/p>\n<p>Offensively, after a slow start against Battle Creek starter Jacob Spencer, the Growlers finally poked through a scoreless tie in the sixth. With a runner on, a pair of singles by Savi Delgado and Jeremy Comer put K-Zoo in front.<\/p>\n<p>After a scoreless seventh, K-Zoo added on an insurance run in the eighth. After a two-out walk by Savi Delgado, Jeremy Comer grabbed his second RBI of the night, launching a double into the left-center alley.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>A pair of scoreless innings by Andrew Jergins and Donny Tober secured the Growlers their Northwoods League-leading seventh shutout of the season. With the least amount of walks, lowest WHIP, and highest first-pitch strike percentage of anyone in the Northwoods League, K-Zoonow holds a Great Lakes fourth-best 4.48 ERA.<\/p><\/div>\n<div><span style=\"color: #0e101a;font-family: Arial, sans-serif\"><br \/>\n<\/span>The Growlers are back at home tomorrow to finish out a two-game set with Battle Creek. In the final game before the All-Star Break, first pitch is set for 1:35 p.m. at Homer Stryker Field.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Kalamazoo, Mich. \u2013\u00a0On Saturday, July 21, the Kalamazoo Growlers (28-26, 10-9) officially clinched its seventh straight I-94  [&#8230;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":15,"featured_media":20984,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[33,15],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-20983","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-player-news","category-team-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.5 (Yoast SEO v26.5) -
