Eau Claire Express Postgame Recap:<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

There\u2019s no better way to spend your Friday night than at Carson Park watching Fireworks. The only thing that could ever make it any better would be a big Eau Claire Express win, and in that case, it looks like it got better.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Express buckled down, came to play, and took down the Moondogs 7-3 to win their 3<\/span>rd<\/span> straight game. The stats go so show off a well-deserved win as the home team Express recorded 12 hits and 13 Ks in explosive fashion.<\/span><\/p>\n

Creighton\u2019s Garret Reisz started on the mound and lasted 5 innings only giving up 4 hits, and to back him up, Minot State\u2019s Trevyn Badger and Winona State\u2019s Nick Herold threw for 3 innings allowing 0 hits while recording 5 strikeouts including 3 in a row to end the game.<\/span><\/p>\n

On the offensive end, Stanford\u2019s Carter Graham and Illinois-Chicago\u2019s Ryan Lin-Peistrup led the charge, recording 6 hits, 2 runs, and 5 RBIs between the 2.<\/span><\/p>\n

This performance keeps the momentum rolling and the trains chugging as we take on the Rochester Honkers here at Carson Park tomorrow and Sunday to finish off the Home-stand before the All-Star Break.<\/span><\/p>\n
