Lance Vickers gives Bowling Green a gritty, high-contact bat with sneaky speed
In the 2026 season, Lance Vickers has been one of Bowling Green’s steadier offensive pieces, hitting .278 with 30 hits, 17 runs, 13 RBIs, 11 stolen bases and a .729 OPS, while also flashing multi-hit upside and a recent hot stretch of three straight two-hit games against Toledo. The differentiator here is the combo package: a catcher/utility bat who runs well, draws contact, and competes hard enough to keep pressure on defenses even when he’s not leaving the yard. He looks like a strong fit for a team that values toughness, versatility and momentum-changing baserunning.
