Whitecaps Squelch Cougars Offense in Shutout Win
West Michigan Whitecaps starter Kevin Phillips turned in a top-notch performance against the Kane County Cougars at Fifth Third Ballpark. The result was a win for the Whitecaps, 3-0. The winning pitcher was Phillips, now 2-1. He tossed 5.2 innings of 3-hit ball, while walking 3 and fanning 11. Ray Braun collected his 9th save.

West Michigan first baseman Thomas Francisco contributed a timely at-bat in the bottom of the fourth. With two down, he hit a curveball into center field for a run-scoring single. It was his 6th hit of the season and put the Whitecaps ahead, 1-0.

"Kevin was able to execute his pitches," said West Michigan manager Coco Crisp. "Simple as that."

Kane County falls to 15-10.
