Starting pitcher Miles Bailey gave the West Michigan Whitecaps a rock-solid effort. The Mt. Prospect, Illinois native helped his team defeat the Bowling Green Hot Rods, 2-0, at Fifth Third Ballpark. Bailey got the win, improving to 6-2. He gave up 2 hits and walked 2 over 6.1 innings. He allowed no runs. The save went to Ryan Cardone, number 15 for him.

The Whitecaps got a big hit from first baseman Matt Garduno. Facing Bowling Green pitcher Vinny Curiel in the bottom of the sixth, Garduno pounded a run-scoring double to center. His 13th double of the season put the Whitecaps ahead, 2-0.

"At the end of the day, it's always about your starting pitcher," said West Michigan skipper Noah Fourie.

At 64-54, the Whitecaps are currently second in the Eastern Division.
