Unorthodox, maybe, but we will always take what we can get, including a hard-fought victory. A pitcher\u2019s battle, which included Duluth\u2019s Bed Shepard and Winona State\u2019s Nick Herold, kept the Huskies to only 2 runs. On the batting side, the big name of the night, Nova Southeastern\u2019s Alejandro Macario, drove a single through the third base gap to drive Winona State\u2019s Derek Baumgartner home and end the game.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">With this much action in the first of a 5-game homestand, we can only imagine how many more exciting games and moments there are to come. Coming this week, we battle division opponents for a race in the standings. These teams include the Minnesota Mud Puppies and the Waterloo Bucks. Each 2-game series will provide a challenge, but just as we showed last Friday and again tonight, we have what it takes to get a win, and that\u2019s exactly what we\u2019ll be looking for.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>The Express are back for their second game of the 5 game homestand.
