LANSING, Mich. - All-Star Kyle Dowdy struck out 11 batters in seven innings and the West Michigan Whitecaps (38-26) crept closer to a playoff berth with a 9-2 victory over the Lansing Lugnuts (34-33) on Thursday night at Cooley Law School Stadium.

 

One more Whitecaps win or one Lake County Captains loss in the first half's final three games would clinch a playoff berth for the defending Midwest League champs.

 

Dowdy (Win, 4-1) allowed seven total hits in seven frames, tying his season high, walking one, and watching his ERA raise to 2.40 due to solo home runs from Justin Atkinson and Josh Almonte in the third inning, the second homer of the season for each.

 

West Michigan countered with a 19-hit attack, catalyzed by Derek Hill homering off Tayler Saucedo's first pitch of the game.

 

Saucedo (Loss, 2-6) allowed 14 hits and eight runs in five innings, including three runs apiece in each of the first two innings.

 

Whitecaps first baseman Will Maddox, another Midwest League All-Star, was 4-for-5 with four runs scored and a walk, and designated hitter Will Allen finished 5-for-5 with five singles.
