With two down, Zach Weigel walked and that set the stage for Borglin. &nbsp;After Weigel stole second base, Borglin homered on a 2-1 pitch to start the celebration.&nbsp; Borglin was mobbed by his teammates and drenched with water as he crossed home plate.&nbsp;\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tKingfish pitchers had a total of 13 strikeouts on the night, including eight by the starter E.J. Trapino.&nbsp; The southpaw pitched five innings and a third, limiting Kalamazoo to two runs on five hits. Garrett McKenzie and Brett Shimanvosky both came out of the bullpen to work two and two thirds innings of relief. J.D. Nielsen picked up the win after pitching three scoreless innings.&nbsp;\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tOn the mound for the Growlers, Timothy Cerven was impressive, bringing a shutout into the eighth inning.&nbsp; He finished with a line of seven and a third innings pitched, striking out five while surrendering three runs.&nbsp; Jake Rouse took the loss after giving up the home run to Borglin.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tAt the plate, the Growlers were led by Jordan Stading and Soteropulos with three hits a piece. Eric Filia continued his hot hitting to spearhead the Kingfish attack, going 3-5 with a run scored.&nbsp; Weigel had four hits and Borglin finished with two hits and two RBIs.&nbsp;\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tThe Kingfish play their final regular season home game of the year Friday, August 7<sup>th<\/sup> at 7:05 p.m.&nbsp; After the game, Kozak Orthodontics presents the Invisalign Dig.&nbsp; A coupon will be hidden within the infield and the first person to find the coupon claims the Invisalign prize, a $6,000 value.&nbsp;\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tThe Aurora Health Care alternate jerseys will be up for auction on Friday night.&nbsp; A silent auction for the jerseys will be located next to Fan Services and the auction runs through the seventh inning.&nbsp; CCB Technology Fan Appreciation Night takes place as well with a Kingfish year-end yard sale.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tTickets for the first ever Kingfish home playoff game on August 10<sup>th<\/sup> at 7:05 p.m. are on sale now.&nbsp; Do not miss your chance to be a part of Kingfish baseball history.&nbsp; Tickets are available at the Kingfish ticket office powered by Platinum Systems or call 262.653.0900 for more information.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tThe Kingfish ticket office powered by Platinum Systems is located at 7817 Sheridan Road and is open from&nbsp;8:30 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. Monday&nbsp;through&nbsp;Friday&nbsp;and from&nbsp;8:30 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. on Saturday.&nbsp;The Kingfish ticket office Powered by Platinum systems is open from 8:30am until the end of the game on home game dates.
