\n\tWILLMAR, Minn. – The Stingers completed the series sweep of the Waterloo Bucks Friday night, winning 11-4 and moving to four games above .500 on the year.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tIn the second inning, 2017 All-Star and Home Run Derby participant Nolan Bumstead (CS-Northridge) launched a home run over the left field wall to give the Stingers an early 1-0 lead.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tThe next inning, it was Josh Bissonette (Baylor) who sent another Stinger Dinger over the left field wall for a three-run home run, opening up the four-run lead that the Stingers would never concede.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tWith Bissonette's fourth home run of the year, he extended his on-base streak to 20 straight games and now has a batting average of .340. \n<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Stingers scored in six of their eight innings at the plate, adding a pair of runs in the fifth, seventh, and eighth innings.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tOn the mound, they were led by Nick Lackney (Minnesota) who recorded his third straight win. He finished the day having given up two earned runs and only three hits in five innings pitched.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tThrough four innings, Lackney had only thrown 48 pitches and faced one over the minimum. By the end of the day, he had thrown 54 of his 81 pitches for strikes.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tHe moves to 3-1 on the season.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tToday's Center for Diagnostic Imaging player of the game was Nolan Bumstead. CDI is your local medical imaging provider. It’s your choice where you go for medical imaging, for MRI, CT, mammograms and pain injections, choose CDI. Visit online at myCDI.com\/CentralMN.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tBumstead finished 2-for-3, driving in four runs for Willmar. In addition to his second-inning homer, he hit a two-run double in the fifth, walked in the seventh, and sacrificed Luke Becker (Kentucky) in to score the tenth run of the day for Willmar with a fly ball into right.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tThe only unproductive at bat for Bumstead was a fly ball into left that was caught by the left fielder with his back to the wall.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Stingers move to 9-5 on the second half and 27-23 overall. Tomorrow they head to La Crosse to begin a two-game series against the Loggers. So far this season, they took both games at Copeland Park against the Loggers. All-Star Gus Varland (Concordia-St. Paul) is expected to start for Willmar. \n<\/p>\n
