MARION, IL -The Schaumburg Boomers, presented by Wintrust Community Banks, dropped a series for the first time since the opening series of the year by suffering a 2-1 loss in the finale of six-game roadtrip Sunday afternoon.

The Boomers used six pitchers in the game and were able to open an early 1-0 lead in the second. Nick Oddo coaxed a one-out walk and scored from first on a perfectly executed hit-and-run double from Rayden Sierra.

The Miners scored twice in the fourth inning against the second Schaumburg pitcher, Taylor Goshen, to nab the win.

Darrell Thompson, Dylan Stusman and Connor Eller finished out the game as the combo of hurlers struck out six. The Boomers managed just six hits in the loss with two coming from Connor Oliver.

The Boomers (13-8) finished the trip 3-3 and maintain a two-game lead over Lake Erie in the early East Division standing.
