C.J. Gregory Ties TCL Record for Wins In A Season With Eighth Victory

Bryan-College Station, TX (July 16, 2015) - On Thursday night, the Bombers began a four-game homestand with a shutout victory over the Acadiana Cane Cutters by a score of 5-0. The Bombers have now won five games in a row heading into the second game of the series on Friday night.

The Bombers were led by outfielder Ben Hollas, who went 3-for-4 with a run scored and two RBI. Ben was subsequently named Cellucor Player of the Game for his performance. On the mound, C.J. Gregory was masterful once again, going three and one-third innings while only allowing one hit, no runs, and striking out three Cane Cutters. The victory improves C.J.’s record to 8-0 and puts him in a tie for the TCL record for wins in a season with former Bomber Brian Borski.

The Bombers’ record improves to 28-6 overall and 9-2 in the second half. In search of their ninth consecutive half-season championship; the Bombers hold a one and a half game over second place for the lead in the second half standings.
