The run parade continued in the bottom of the fifth, when Owen Washburn (Texas Tech) advanced home on a balk, and Reggie Bussey (Oakland) stole third and scored off an error.<\/p>\n<p>La Crosse threatened late, loading the bases and scoring a runner off of a sacrifice fly to right field. This would not be enough, as Jace Kirby (Western Kentucky) was able to work out of the jam and secure the win.<\/p>\n<p>The Express pitching put on a strong showing tonight, holding the Loggers scoreless through the first four innings of tonights contest. Tracen Cameron (Florida International) picks up the win (1-1), after throwing five innings, allowing only two hits and striking out a pair. Jace Kirby (Western Kentucky) gets the save (1), and Nik Copenhaver (Vanderbilt) takes the loss (0-3).<\/p>\n<p>The Express get the day off tomorrow, and then head out to Dickinson, North Dakota for a series against the Badlands Big Sticks.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/scorebook.northwoodsleague.com\/update\/4102\/statistics\/stats\/home\/batting\/game\">https:\/\/scorebook.northwoodsleague.com\/update\/4102\/statistics\/stats\/home\/batting\/game<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><i>The Eau Claire Express are a member of the finest developmental league for elite college baseball players, the Northwoods League.
