Kokomo, Ind.,<\/span><\/i> — The Kalamazoo Growlers fell 3-2 against the Kokomo Jackrabbits in the final meeting between the two teams at Kokomo Municipal Stadium. Kalamazoo will get another chance at the Jackrabbits August 8 and 9 at Homer Stryker Field.<\/span><\/p>\n

Kokomo struck first in the bottom of the first on a two run single by Ben Livorsi (Minnesota St.-Mankato). The Jackrabbits stranded three runners on base in the frame. The Growlers\u2019 starter, <\/span>Christian Johnson<\/b> (0-0, Gustavos Adolphus), had two strikeouts in the frame.<\/span><\/p>\n

Kalamazoo responded quickly in the next half inning as <\/span>Zack Gelof<\/b> (UVA) drilled a leadoff triple in the right center gap. He would come around to score two batters later on an RBI single by<\/span> Gabe Rivera <\/b>(Miami (FL)).<\/span><\/p>\n

The Growlers were able to tie the game in the fifth on an RBI single from <\/span>Austin Knight<\/b> (Tennessee), to bring around <\/span>Brooks Coetzee<\/b> (Notre Dame).\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The winning run was scored by Kokomo in the bottom of the sixth on an RBI single from Logan Jarvis (Belmont) to score Jack Kraus (UW-Milwaukee).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In the top of the ninth, the Growlers had runners on first and second with one out but the runners couldn\u2019t advance farther.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Jackrabbits starter, Parker Sisovsky (1-1, Kalamazoo College) earned his first win, while <\/span>David Toth <\/b>(1-3) registered the loss. Joey Haass (Delaware) earned his sixth save as he shut the door on the Growlers in the ninth.<\/span><\/p>\n
