Lansing outlasted West Michigan to notch a series-opening win on Tuesday, and shortstop Cobie Vance led the way for the Lugnuts. The 23-year-old infielder singled in the 2nd inning, doubled in a run and came around to score in the 4th, drew a walk in the 5th, tagged a two-run homer in the 7th to give Lansing a three-run lead, and was hit by a pitch in the 9th. Vance has gone 6 for 12 with 3 extra-base hits over his last 3 games and is slugging .491 over 15 games in July. Left fielder Shane Selman singled, doubled and drew 3 walks, while designated hitter Lazaro Armenteros singled twice, walked and drove in a run for the Lugnuts. RHP Seth Shuman turned in another solid start, allowing just 1 run while striking out 6 over 5 frames to earn the victory for Lansing.
