The Southern Illinois Miners had the lead twice in a pitcher’s duel on Friday night against the Traverse City Beach Bums at Rent One Park, but the visitors scored the tying runs in the middle frames, then went ahead in the 11th inning before hanging on for a 5-4 win in the rubber match of the three-game series.
The game went by quickly through the first six innings, as starters Chris Washington and John Havird kept the other team’s offense off-balance. It was Havird who cracked first, hitting Nolan Earley with a pitch to lead off the bottom of the fifth inning. After a single by Justin Chigbogu moved him to third base, Ben Moore‘s single drove him in and made it 1-0 Miners. The Beach Bums got the run right back in the top of the sixth, as Giancarlo Brugnoni reached on a wild pitch after striking out, was sacrificed to second base and scored on an RBI single by Arby Fields to make it 1-1. It would be the only run Washington allowed in seven innings in his first professional start for the Miners, with no walks and five strikeouts.
In the bottom of the seventh, Havird departed after allowing a single to Willi Martin and a one-out double by Chigbogu. A balk on Enrique Oquendo brought home the go-ahead run to make it 2-1, but Traverse City again tied the score right away on a pinch-hit single by Jeff DeBlieux in the top of the eighth inning, knotting the score at 2-2.

Both teams had chances to break the tie in the late innings. In the bottom of the eighth, with two outs, the Miners loaded the bases but left them loaded, and Southern Illinois stranded two more runners in the tenth inning. Traverse City also had two runners on in the ninth and tenth frames, but John Werner and Nick Palacios kept them off the board.
In the 11th inning, with the International Tiebreaker in effect, Alexis Rivera singled home the go-ahead run, and Elijah Trail followed two batters later with a ground-rule double that brought home two additional runs to make the score 5-2 Beach Bums. Chigbogu led off the bottom half with an automatic runner at second by crushing a two-run home run to center field to get the Miners within 5-4. With two outs, London Lindley singled to keep the game alive, but a flyout by Craig Massey ended the contest as the visitors escaped with the series-clinching win.
Chigbogu went 3-for-5 with a double, home run and two RBIs, while Ryan Lashley also had three hits in five at-bats in the game, but it was not enough. The Miners will look to bounce back on Friday night when they entertain the Lake Erie Crushers at 7:05 p.m. in the first game of a weekend series.
The Southern Illinois Miners are the 2016 Frontier League West Division Champions, the 2014 and 2015 Frontier League East Division Champions and the 2012 Frontier League Champions. They have been awarded the Frontier League Organization of the Year award three times since their inception, and also set a new Frontier League attendance record in 2007, their inaugural season.

ERIN, WI- (WTMV-TV, Madison Wisconsin. Please click on the link above for the full story, and relating stories to the incident. Here is an excerpt below.)
The pilot of the advertising blimp sustained serious injuries during the crash at the U.S. Open at Erin Hills on Thursday morning.
According to the Washington County Sheriff’s Office, the pilot was taken by Flight for Life with serious burns and injuries. The pilot was the only person inside the aircraft at the time of the crash
An initial investigation has revealed that the blimp may have experienced mechanical problems prior to the crash.
The Southern Illinois Miners split a doubleheader on Wednesday night against the Traverse City Beach Bums, scoring six runs in the sixth inning to come back from a three-run deficit and win 6-3 in the first game before falling 6-0 in the second game at Rent One Park.
In game one, Ethan Gibbons (3-1) and Reinaldo Lopez kept the opposition off the scoreboard until the top of the fourth inning, when Will Kengor’s double, a passed ball and a wild pitch scored the game’s first run to make it 1-0. Traverse City scored two more runs in the fifth after two walks led off the inning by Gibbons on an RBI single by Arby Fields and a double-play grounder for a 3-0 lead. Gibbons pitched a quality start, allowing just two earned runs on five hits in six innings to keep the Miners in the game.

In the bottom of the sixth, the Miners would bat around and not only tie the game, but surge ahead as well. After Ryan Lashley led off the frame with a single, Marc Flores walked and Kurt Wertz, Jr. singled to load the bases with no one out, and Traverse City went to their bullpen and brought in closer Jacob Lanning (0-3). Justin Chigbogu‘s sacrifice fly got the Miners on the board and made it 3-1. Ben Moore was then hit by a pitch to re-load the bases, and Willi Martin‘s pinch-hit walk forced in another run to make it 3-2. London Lindley followed with the big blow of the inning, a go-ahead, two-run single to center field that gave the Miners their first lead at 4-3. A Craig Massey sacrifice fly and a wild pitch scored two insurance runs later in the big inning and made it 6-3 Southern Illinois before John Werner pitched a scoreless ninth to nail down the save and the victory.
In the second game, after two walks in the first inning by Kody Knaus (0-1), with two outs, Alexis Rivera hit a three-run home run to give Traverse City a 3-0 lead. Knaus worked out of trouble in the second despite two walks, but a pair of walks leading off the third inning chased him from the game. Kengor then hit a three-run homer of his own off reliever Austin Dubsky to make it 6-0. Dubsky would settle down and pitch four innings out of the bullpen, striking out a career-best five in the game while permitting just one baserunner other than Kengor, but Augie Gallardo (3-1) held the Miners’ offense down over six innings of work as Southern Illinois split the twin-bill in Marion.
The Miners and Beach Bums will settle the series with a rubber match on Thursday night beginning at 7:05 p.m. It will feature a matchup of rookie left-handers, with Chris Washington making his first pro start for Southern Illinois and John Havird getting the ball for Traverse City.
