\n\t\"Kalamazoo<\/a>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tBattle Creek, Mich<\/strong> — In the inaugural game of the teams' rivalry, the Kalamazoo Growlers broke out for four runs in the fourth inning on their way to defeating the Battle Creek Bombers 5-1. The Growlers received a stellar pitching performance from Shane Bryant (Purdue University). Bryant scattered two hits through six innings and picked up his first win of the season. Cody Leichman (Central Michigan) got the bats going in the top of the fourth with the first home run in Growlers history, a towering shot to center field. This home run started a four-run fourth and the Growlers never relinquished the lead. \n<\/p>\n

\n\tJohn Rubino (Eastern Michigan) knocked in his team-leading fourth RBI of the season in the top of the ninth to help seal the Kalamazoo victory. Tanner Tully (Ohio State) was on the losing end for the Battle Creek Bombers. He surrendered four runs in four innings of work. Brandon Van Horn knocked in the only Bomber run in the botom of the second inning.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Growlers and Bombers will complete the home-and-home series in the Growlers' first home game in franchise history at Homer Stryker Field on Friday. The game is scheduled to start at 7:05 PM E.S.T.\n<\/p>\n
