The Trains were unsteady in the field early on, recording 3 errors on the night. In addition to their errors in the field, they struggled from several close plays not going their way.<\/p>\n<p>Ryan Nagelbach (UIC) and Camden Ross (WKU)\u00a0 were two bright spots in the Eau Claire lineup. Ross went 3-4 on the night at the plate, and helped to bolster his already impressive .568 On-Base-Percentage. Nagelbach also tacked on a few more important stats as he launched a home run over the right field wall in the 3rd inning. This was his 8th of the year and furthered his team lead in the category.<\/p>\n<p>Other than two innings of scoring, the Express failed to add on any more runs through 9.<\/p>\n<p>One positive for the pitching staff was when Robert Hogan (Texas A&amp;M) came in in the 4th inning and finished out the game for the Trains. He looked sharp as a razor, throwing 5 1\/3 innings. In his appearance, he only gave up 3 hits, and 1 unearned run, and struck out an astounding 9 Waterloo batters. This performance earned him &#8220;Player of the Game&#8221; honors for the Express.<\/p>\n<p>Eau Claire will look to halt their 4-game losing streak with a fresh start in La Crosse tomorrow. They play the Loggers twice in a doubleheader, with their first game coming at 12:05 pm CT. Their second game will begin at 6:35 pm CT, and both games will be streamed online on the Northwoods League Website and the radio at 106.7 FM.
