Luis Perez suffered the loss, allowing five runs in six innings while striking out six.
After waiting through a two-hour rain delay, the Schaumburg Boomers were unable to complete a road sweep of the Evansville Otters, suffering an 8-1 defeat on Sunday night in Indiana.
Evansville opened the scoring in the bottom of the first inning, using a pair of doubles to score two runs. A triple led to a run in the third and a double with two outs extended the lead to 4-0 in the fourth. Schaumburg put runners on base consistently but could not score until the top of the fifth. Blake Berry singled home Gaige Howard, who walked, to cut into the deficit. Howard has reached base in every game this season.
Perez has worked six innings in each of his five starts. The Boomers were limited to just three hits in the contest to match a season low. Brett Milazzo, Alec Craig and Berry all reached base twice in the defeat. Schaumburg struck out 13 times in the loss.
