It was quite the pitchers\u2019 duel at Carson Park as the Express lost 3-0 in 10 innings.<\/p>\n<p>The final score is misleading as there was no score as the game headed into extras. Express starter, Justin Revels (Illinois-Springfield), and Larks starter, Bennett Wiggins were outstanding today for their ball clubs. Revels gave up his first hit in the fifth inning, going nine innings and giving up no runs. Revels had a tremendous start but ended with a no decision. Isaiah Davis (Fresno State) was roughed up in the 10<sup>th<\/sup> inning and would receive the loss. Davis would throw 0.2 innings, giving up three runs (one earned) on two walks. Phillip Sikes (New Mexico) entered to record the final out of the 10th inning, a backward K. Larks starter, Bennett Wiggins, would also throw nine innings and allow no runs on six hits and two walks, receiving the win. Colan Borchers would earn a save, shutting down the Express in the bottom of the 10<sup>th<\/sup>.<\/p>\n<p>It got messy for the Eau Claire in the 10<sup>th<\/sup> inning. Larks\u2019 Jacob Nesbit would lead off with a walk and would advance to second after Brandon Barna reached on an error by the third baseman. The damage was done when Carson Bartels was at the plate. He would get on base by a fielder\u2019s choice, but an error by pitcher Isaiah Davis would allow both Nesbit and Barna to score. Bartels would end up at third base. In the next at bat, Bartles would score on a fielder\u2019s choice hit by Cristian Montes.<\/p>\n<p>The Eau Claire Express will now start a four game road trip with two games in Waterloo and two in Willmar. They return home on Thursday, June 14<sup>th<\/sup> for a 6:35 pm first pitch on Teacher Appreciation Night. The game is presented by the Career Development Center and Express T-shirts will be given away to fans (while supplies last)!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">###<\/p>\n<p><em>The Eau Claire Express are a member of the finest developmental league for elite college baseball players, the Northwoods League.
