SCHAUMBURG, IL - The Schaumburg Boomers, presented by Wintrust Community Banks, amassed 15 hits as all nine members of the lineup reached base while easing to a 12-3 home win over the Southern Illinois Miners.

The Boomers, winners of three in a row, did not waste any time in grabbing the lead, scoring twice in the bottom of the first inning. Jack Parenty led off the game with a walk and Clint Hardy followed with a single. The first run scored when Quincy Nieporte reached on an error and the second crossed on an RBI groundout from Nick Oddo. Schaumburg sent 11 men to the plate in the second inning, scoring five runs to open a 7-0 advantage. Chase Dawson and Oddo recorded RBI singles in the inning while Nieporte notched a two-run double and another run scored on an error.

Newcomer Jumpei Akanuma tossed the final three frames to notch the save in his debut. Six players tallied more than one hit led by three from Hardy. Nieporte finished with four RBIs. The Boomers have won five in a row over Southern Illinois.
