\n\t\"Photo<\/a>KALAMAZOO, MI – Looking at Alec Byrd's (Florida State) final line in the box score, it shows that five earned runs were charged to the Kalamazoo pitcher out of the Sunshine State.<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tEven though Byrd was charged with five runs, he pitched better than the stats indicate. Until the sixth inning, the Growlers (7-27, 15-51) held a 1-0 lead of the Green Bay Bullfrogs (16-15, 38-28). Then, the unraveling began with an unearned run in the sixth and five earned in the seventh to give Green Bay a 6-3 win in the final game played at Homer Stryker Field in the 2015 season.<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tThe offense was there for Kalamazoo, and at the end of the nine innings, the Growlers actually out-hit the Bullfrogs 12 to eight.<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tAngelo Armenta (USC), who has been swinging a hot bat as of late, bringing his batting average to above .200 for the first time this season, led the way going three for five falling a home run shy of the cycle.<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tThe other multi-hit club member for Kalamazoo this game was the catcher from Arkansas, Alex Gosser, who had two singles.<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tTimely hitting was the problem for the Growlers this game. 12 hits will win most ballgames, unless those hits do not drive any runs.<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tBoth Armenta and Gosser did not have any RBIs.<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tGreen Bay’s eight hits proved to be more productive.<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tJack Strunc (Washington State) led the team with two RBI off a bases-loaded single in the seventh. <\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tAs Homer Stryker Field closes its gates and prepares for the 2016 season, the current 2015 Growlers will hop on a charter bus and head to La Crosse to play the Loggers for one of their last series of the season.<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n
