The Schaumburg Boomers received strong pitching and led the entire way to topple the Gateway Grizzlies 4-1 and finish the first roadtrip of the season with a 3-3 record.

Trooper McKinney and Tippecanoe County Community Corrections concluded an investigation that began earlier this year and resulted in the arrest of Tyreese Moten, 37, from West Lafayette, and Sonja Blakeney, 52, from West Lafayette.

The Gateway Grizzlies scored 11 unanswered runs to tally a 12-7 victory over the Schaumburg Boomers in the middle game of a road series on Wednesday night.

**** Recommended **** Watching "London Road" felt a bit like watching a Japanese Kabuki as the ensemble moved around the stage with highly synchronized precision to complex musical rhythms.  "London Road" is something called Verbatim Theatre, a form of documentary theatre based on the spoken words of real people.  In fact, I would bet that it is completely different from anything you’ve ever seen.  It was a totally fascinating production!  4 Spotlights
