Bees Roll to 9-2 Win Over Cubs
Burlington parlayed a decent outing from starter Rob Gordon into a solid win over the South Bend Cubs. The final score was 9-2. Gordon, now 1-1, was the winner. In 7 innings, he gave up 6 hits, while striking out 4, walking 2, and allowing 1 run. With the loss, South Bend sinks to 13-13.

Mike Davis had a big 2-run double for the Bees in the top of the fourth inning. With Burlington leading 2-1 and the bases loaded, he got a slider from Marcus Kerklaan, who is tied for 2nd in the MID in innings pitched with 42.2, and swatted a double to right. It was his 3rd double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Bees ahead, 4-1.

Said losing manager Taylor Davis: "The at-bats, obviously, needed to be better."
