O'FALLON, Mo. - The Schaumburg Boomers set a new franchise record with eight extra-base hits in recording a 10-8 win over the River City Rascals on the road Tuesday night.
The Boomers wasted no time taking the lead, striking for four runs in the first, two of which came on a two-run homer from Steve McQuail. McQuail's blast was his third of the year and the first of three in the game. Gerard Hall and Frank Pfister also posted homers in the contest. Hall came up with three hits and three RBIs while Pfister and McQuail drove home three runs as well. River City kept putting pressure on the Boomers but could never overcome the early deficit.
