Battle Creek Battle Jacks News Release

Battle Creek, Mich - The Madison Mallards (20-11) used two big innings and 17 hits to defeat the Battle Creek Bombers (13-19) 11-1 on Monday night at C.O. Brown Stadium.

Kyle Slack (L 0-2) started for the Bombers and kept the Mallards offense at bay before surrendering a pair of runs in the 3rd on an RBI double by Tate Matheny. The Mallards then erupted for five runs in the 5th inning with the big blow coming on a 2- run home run by Bre'shon Kimbell. Madison took a 7-0 lead into the bottom of the 5th when Battle Creek was finally able to break through for a run against Mallards starter, Luke Staub (W 3-2). Kade Scivicque tripled and later scored on a Mark Weist sacrifice fly, but that would be the only run the Bombers would push across the plate. Staub was dazzling on the mound going 8 innings, surrendering just 2 hits and striking out 5.

The Mallards kept the runs coming in the 7th inning plating 4 more to go ahead 11-1. Ben Dartnell, Todd Eaton and Kellen Urbon worked in relief for Battle Creek. The Bombers will welcome in the Wisconsin Woodchucks for a two game series starting tomorrow. Alex Tukey (0-1) will start the opener. First pitch is set for 7:05 p.m.
