Mequon, WI (June 19th, 2013)--The Battle Creek Bombers were forced to go to their bullpen early in Wednesday night's win over the Lakeshore Chinooks. In an effort to halt the Chinooks' recent hot run, the Bombers turned to Caleb Vincent (Grand Valley State) for some solid bullpen innings.

The Bombers will will play Lakeshore again on Thursday at 6:35.
