Hot Rods Win, 5-1, Versus West Michigan
The West Michigan Whitecaps went down to defeat to Jayden Wilkins and his Bowling Green teammates. The final score was 5-1, Hot Rods, in 13 innings. The win went to Brent Watson in relief, making him now 6-2. Jason Harris took the loss for West Michigan. Bowling Green sits in 7th place in the Eastern Division at 53-64.

Bowling Green used a timely hit from Jeff Sheeley to get the win. The first baseman stroked a run-scoring double in the top of the 13th inning to put the Hot Rods ahead, 2-1. It was his only hit in 3 at-bats, but it made an impact.

"This is not a one-man show," said Wilkins. "A lot of the guys stepped up."
