\u00a0<\/p>\n The teams traded punts on their next few possessions, until two and a half minutes left in the first quarter when Sergio Castillo<\/a> scored the first points for the visitors, a 46-yard field goal, cutting Hamilton\u2019s lead to 7-3. Hamilton matched with a field goal of their own on their opening possession of the second quarter. Marc Liegghio<\/a> connected on his 10-yard attempt, extending Hamilton\u2019s lead to 10-3.<\/p>\n The Blue Bombers\u00a0announced during halftime on social media<\/a> that Collaros would not return to the contest as he deals with an upper body injury. The Bombers pivot\u2019s last play was during the second quarter where he was sacked by Reggie Stubblefield.<\/p>\n Inside the three-minute warning, Mitchell and the Tiger-Cats found themselves inside the red zone once again. But just like they did earlier in the second quarter, Winnipeg\u2019s defence held strong, keeping them from scoring six. Liegghio was good on his 20-yard field goal attempt, increasing his team\u2019s lead to 13-3. As the final seconds ticked off the clock in the first half, Castillo attempted a 56-yard field goal, but slipped on the play and missed. Isaiah Wooden<\/a> took a knee in the end zone for the single (13-4).<\/p>\n To start the second half, Mitchell was sacked by Jake Ceresna<\/a> and suffered a lower body injury that required him to be taken off on a stretcher and in an ambulance. Canadian Tre Ford<\/a> and Jake Dolegala both saw action under centre for the Ticats in place of Mitchell.<\/p>\n Winnipeg scored their first touchdown of the contest on the very first play after a brief delay while waiting for an ambulance to return to Hamilton Stadium. Elgersma found Ontaria Wilson<\/a> for a 31-yard, catch-and-run strike to cut into Hamilton\u2019s lead (13-11) for the Canadian\u2019s first CFL major score.<\/p>\n As the three minute warning approached, Ford threw an interception to Major Williams, bringing Elgersma and co. back on the field, trailing by two and looking to put together a game-winning drive. Winnipeg decided to run the ball to move the sticks, with Brady Oliveira taking seven-straight handoffs. Castillo capped the drive with a 23-yard field goal, giving Winnipeg a 14-13 lead with 21 seconds left on the clock.<\/p>\n That would be enough for the Bombers to leave Hamilton Stadium with the victory.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n SCORING PLAYS<\/p>\n Bo Levi Mitchell<\/a> 19-yard touchdown pass to Kenny Lawler<\/a> (Q1, 13:08) | HAM 7, WPG 0 NEXT UP<\/p>\n The Blue Bombers now head home to Princess Auto Stadium to host the Toronto Argonauts (2-2), who are coming off a loss to the Calgary Stampeders on Thursday night, on Friday, July 10.<\/p>\n Hamilton, on the other hand, will take a trip west to Mosaic Stadium for a battle against the defending Grey Cup champion Saskatchewan Roughriders on Sunday, July 12.
