KANNAPOLIS, NC - The Lakewood BlueClaws took game 2 of their 3 game series against the Kannapolis Intimidators 4-3 on Sunday night.

Bonilla allowed 3 hits and 3 runs over 5 innings to collect his 2nd consecutive win and 2nd win overall as a BlueClaw. 4 relievers combined to pitch the final 4 innings of scoreless baseball for Lakewood.
