Kenosha, Wis. – The Kenosha Kingfish will try to make it four straight wins tonight when they take on the Battle Creek Bombers at 6:05 at Simmons Field in Kenosha.
The Kingfish moved to 3-1 on the season after last night’s 10-8 victory over the Lakeshore Chinooks. Anthony Olson collected the win for the Kingfish and Trevor Haas came in and nailed down the save. Nick Sergakis and Hunter Alexander each hit home runs and drove in three runs a piece.
Manager Duffy Dyer will hand the ball to Maustin Otterstatter tonight. The righty has not pitched since Opening Night, when he threw one inning of relief. Otterstatter hails from Fond du Lac, Wisconsin and attends Washburn University. The sophomore will try to continue the success of Kingfish starting pitchers this season.
