by: Manny Rodriguez
ASHWAUBENON, Wis. – The Green Bay Booyah will hit the road for the first time this month as they prepare to take on the Lakeshore Chinooks at Kapco Park.
The Booyah have found success this season against the Chinooks as Green Bay has been victorious in four of their six meetings. The last time these teams dueled, they split a doubleheader on the last Sunday of June.
Last night, the Booyah, trailing 3-0, were propelled in the bottom of the fourth inning by a three-run home run to right field by Tristin Garcia (Western Kentucky) to even it up. But the Madison Mallards were able to immediately answer with two runs in the top of the fifth inning. Neither team was able to put another run on the board as the Mallards defeated the Booyah, 5-3.
Nadir Lewis (Princeton) went 2-for-3 with a pair of singles and a stolen base. He was the only Booyah to collect more than one hit last night.
The Booyah will give Ryan Stefiuk (Vanderbilt) the ball on Friday , who is 0-2 on the season with a 7.16 ERA. The Chinooks will start Dorsey Chatham, who is 0-1 with a 0.00 ERA on the season.
The Booyah will return on Saturday, July 3rd to take on the Chinooks. First pitch is slated for 4:05 pm. Kids can run the bases postgame, presented by Culver’s and Y100FM. There will be a postgame concert by Panic Station followed by a fireworks show presented by Pepsi and a lighted baton giveaway presented by EatStreet.
