It did bring the winning run to the plate in the bottom of the ninth after a hit from another UW-Milwaukee product and former Eau Claire North standout Tyler Hermann and an error allowing Oxnard Community College utility man Jake Mavropolous to reach base safely. But Sicher bounced out to the Honkers&#039; first baseman to end the game.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tOn the mound, Indiana&#039;s CJ Eldred, the Marshfield Clinic Player of the Night, did his job, throwing five innings and giving up just one earned run with three strikeouts.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tMiles Nablo from Century Community College then tossed four innings in relief and gave up just one run on two hits. He also induced two double play balls.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tNick Gruener was sensational on the mound for the Honkers, going seven innings on just 84 pitches while giving up one run on three hits and seven strikeouts.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tThe Express travel to Rochester tomorrow before returning home for a six-game home stand starting Saturday. First pitch is at 7:05 tomorrow at Mayo Field in Rochester while first pitch Saturday at Carson Park is set for 6:35 against the Waterloo Bucks.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Box Score The old saying in baseball goes as follows: &quot;Hit &#039;em where they aint.&quot;
