Bombardier Batters Chicago for 5 Hits
Mike Bombardier put on a hitting clinic as the Pittsburgh Mechanics dumped the Chicago Blues, 11-5, at Thorvald Park.

The Pittsburgh first baseman made Chicago defenders earn their pay, lashing Chicago pitching for 5 hits in 5 at-bats in the game. He told BNN reporters after the game that his strategy was "just hit it where they pitched it."

"Too often I try too hard to pull the ball," Bombardier said in his postgame press conference. "Today, I just went with the pitch."

Mike Bombardier singled in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, hit an RBI single in the 5th, hit an RBI single in the 6th and singled in the 9th.

This year, Bombardier is hitting .318 with 140 hits, 1 home run, 46 RBIs and has scored 57 runs.
