Battle Creek struggled to find the strike zone throughout the night, walking 15 batters. In addition, the Blue and White yielded their first grand slam of the season in the 3rd inning. Lastly, the offense only scored one run on just five hits.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Although the game did not go well, the Battle Jacks had a few bright spots. Kameron Haviland (Benedictine U at Mesa) struck out four batters. Additionally, Charlie Rhee (San Diego State) continued his hot streak with an RBI single, scoring Jake Allgeyer (Western Illinois) in the 5th inning.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The Battle Jacks (7-13) are now 2-9 in game ones of the series. On the bright side, Battle Creek tends to fare much better in game twos of series, going 5-4 in those games. They will look to bounce back against Rockford (13-8) on Tuesday.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">###<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The Battle Creek Battle Jacks are a member of the finest developmental league for elite college baseball players, the Northwoods League.
