Whiting, Indiana – June 21, 2012 – The Northwest Indiana Oilmen continued their hot streak, winning their sixth straight game and maintaining a four game lead in the MCL South Division. The Oilmen (14-3) pounded the Illinois Lincolns (8-8) 10-3 on Thursday thanks to a five-run eighth inning.


Brandon Krieg contributed to the Oilmen offense with two singles while reaching base four times. Southpaw Joshua Negele picked up the win for the Northwest Indiana. Negele pitched seven innings, allowing one earned run, three hits and two walks, while striking out four.
