SCHAUMBURG, Ill. - The 2021 Frontier League Champion Schaumburg Boomers scored first for the 11th consecutive contest and Ryan Middendorf did the rest in a 4-1 victory over the Gateway Grizzlies.
Alec Craig scored the game's first run in the bottom of the first after reaching on an error. Matt Bottcher drove home Craig with a groundout and Clint Hardy followed with an RBI single to score William Salas as the Boomers jumped ahead 2-0. Middendorf cruised from there. After walking three in the first two frames, the righty, who won his third of the year, carried a no-hitter into the sixth, Nick Oddo homered in the second to extend the lead. Gateway's lone run came in the seventh on a solo homer from Peter Zimmermann.
Middendorf (3-1) threw eight innings, striking out 11 and surrendering just one run on three hits. Middendorf has struck out 10 or more batters in three consecutive outings. Darrell Thompson worked around a leadoff walk in the ninth by striking out three to tally his second save of the season. Salas and Thomas DeBonville each recorded a pair of hits for the Boomers (13-9).
The brief three-game home stint will come to a close with a 6:30 pm contest tomorrow night present by Judson University. RHP Shumpei Yoshikawa (2-1, 5.40) takes the mound in the rubber contest against RHP Sam Gardner (1-1, 7.13). Tickets for the 2022 season are on sale now! Visit boomersbaseball.com.
