Despite missing half the season, he ended the regular season leading the team in RBIs, 59, and tied for the team lead in home runs, 10.
In August, Burdick became even more productive. He began the month of August by winning Midwest League Player of the Week honors for August 5th through the 11th. A day after winning the award, he registered his first multi-home run game of his professional career on August 12th against the Peoria Chiefs. In total, Burdick ended the month of August by batting .337 with six home runs and 30 RBIs and is the first LumberKing in three years to win a monthly award from the Midwest League.
Burdick will be in the lineup on Wednesday night in Clinton when the LumberKings open their best-of-three game playoff series with the Kane County Cougars at NelsonCorp Field. First pitch to Wednesday night's playoff opener is scheduled for 6:30 p.m. with gates opening at 5:00 p.m.
