Bombers Run Win Streak to 6
The Bronx Bombers picked up a win at LemonHart Park, taking down the Philadelphia Athletics, 6-3. Starting pitcher José Burgos was a big reason why. In 9 innings, Burgos surrendered 7 hits, while striking out 10 and walking 0. He allowed 3 runs. The Bombers, now 6-0, have played some good baseball in the early going.

Chris Gunter swatted a 2-run home run for Bronx in the bottom of the fourth. The left fielder went 2 for 3 for the game, including 1 home run and 1 double. He scored 1 run and batted in 2.

"We took advantage of our opportunities," Gunter told the Bronx Daily News. "It's as simple as that."
