Whitecaps Collect 8-1 Win Versus Lansing
The exploits of right fielder Zachary Burgess, who is tied for 7th in the MID in doubles with 21, helped the West Michigan Whitecaps defeat the Lansing Lugnuts, 8-1. Burgess went 3 for 4 with 2 doubles and a walk, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once. The Whitecaps win now puts them at 40-43.

West Michigan used a clutch at-bat from Jorge Alvarez to capture the win. The second baseman hammered a 2-run home run in the top of the fourth inning to put the Whitecaps ahead, 2-1. It was his lone hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.

"We didn't help ourselves, it's as simple as that," said losing manager Phil Phalen.
