Bowsers Flatten Comets, 9-4
The Columbus Bowsers defeated the Kalamazoo Comets, 9-4, at Ballpark of Columbus. Leading the charge for Columbus was right fielder Ayden Huey. He went 3 for 4 with 2 home runs. Columbus starter Pat Higginbotham was credited with the win after throwing 83 pitches over 5.2 innings. His record now stands at 2-1. Columbus, with the win, sits at 37-73.

Bobby Roe had a big grand slam home run for the Bowsers in the bottom of the fourth inning. With Columbus leading 4-1 and the bases loaded, he got a fastball from 20-year old right-handed pitcher Stuart Blankenship and swatted a home run to right. It was his 27th home run of the season, and more importantly, it put the Bowsers ahead, 8-1.

"Enjoyed this one," Huey told the Columbus Today. "But it's back to work tomorrow."
