Boomers sweep season series against Evansville
The Evansville Otters could not solve Schaumburg Sunday as the Boomers beat the Otters 9-3 in front of 2,226 at Bosse Field to complete a season sweep of Evansville.
The Schaumburg offense picked up where it left off from Saturday’s win, scoring three runs in the first inning.
Sean Godfrey hit a two-run RBI single to left to give the Boomers a 2-0 advantage and a passed ball allowed the Schaumburg lead to grow to 3-0.
Evansville answered with two runs in the bottom half as Jeff Gardner’s RBI single scored Josh Allen and John Schultz’s RBI ground out brought Dane Phillips home, making the score 3-2.
An RBI ground out by Andrew Brodbeck made it a 4-2 Boomers lead in the second.
The Otters made it a one-run game again in the third as Brandon Soat delivered an RBI single, scoring Schultz.
From there, the Boomers gradually pulled away.
Capitalizing with a small-ball approach, Brodbeck recorded a second RBI in the fourth with a fielder’s choice to give Schaumburg a 5-3 advantage.
In the fifth, Schaumburg took advantage of a defensive miscue by the Otters.
Godfrey and Ryan O’Malley reached base with back-to-back singles before a Phillips’ throwing error allowed both runners to score, increasing the Schaumburg lead to 7-3.
The Boomers added two more runs in the seventh.
Luc Rennie was handed the loss in the series finale after surrendering seven runs-four earned-in five innings. He allowed five hits and six walks while striking out five.
Michael Wood earned the win in relief for the Boomers. He allowed two walks and a hit in four innings out of the bullpen.
Starting Tuesday, Evansville begins a six-game road trip with a three-game series against the Normal Cornbelters. First pitch is scheduled for 6:35 p.m. from The Corn Crib in Normal, Ill.
Fans can listen live to all road games on 91.5 FM WUEV. Lucas Corley (play-by-play) will provide coverage.

Man Arrested after Intentionally Striking his Friend with a Vehicle
- On Saturday, July 29, 2017 at approximately 1:23 PM, the Vanderburgh County Sheriff Office responded to the area of Shoshoni Lane and Cherokee Drive to investigate a report of a pedestrian struck by a vehicle.
Deputies arrived on scene and learned from witnesses that a man had been struck by a dark colored passenger car. The suspect vehicle reportedly fled the scene after the crash. A relative had already rushed the victim to the hospital prior to the deputies arrival.
Deputies later spoke to the victim, who explained he had been riding with an acquaintance, Mr. Nicholas Patrick Heard, when they began arguing. The victim allegedly grabbed Mr. Heard’s keys, exited the vehicle and began walking away. The victim recalled hearing a car engine rev and then remembered flying through the air after being struck by Mr. Heard’s vehicle. The victim sustained abrasions, cuts and a possible concussion.
Deputies began searching for Mr. Heard and located his grey 2017 Chrysler 200 sedan at his residence on Meridian Avenue. The front windshield was broken and the vehicle showed signs of an impact. Mr. Heard was ordered outside the residence and surrendered without incident.
Mr. Heard is lodged at the Vanderburgh County Jail on charges of Battery with a Deadly Weapon as well as several outstanding bench warrants.
ARRESTED:
Nicholas Patrick Heard (pictured above), 37, of Evansville. Battery with a Deadly Weapon as a Level 5 Felony.
Presumption of Innocence Notice: The fact that a person has been arrested or charged with a crime is merely an accusation. The defendant is presumed innocent until and unless proven guilty in a court of law.
