Kokomo Wins 5-0, Silences Kenosha Offense<\/b><\/p>\n

Kokomo, IN – <\/b>The Kenosha Kingfish were shut out for the first time in 2023, as the Kokomo Jackrabbits shut them out 5-0 at Kokomo Municipal Stadium.<\/span><\/p>\n

In the loss, Kenosha matched their season low of two hits that was originally set against the Traverse City Pit Spitters on June 5.<\/span><\/p>\n

Kokomo exploded for 12 hits to keep their offense rolling after falling short in a 14-13 shootout the night prior.<\/span><\/p>\n

Reagan Burford (Ole Miss) had the only extra base hit for the Kingfish, as he went 1-for-3 with a double.<\/span><\/p>\n

Roman Kuntz (Morehead State University) was the main Jackrabbit contributor at the plate. Kuntz was 2-for-5 with a three-run shot in the bottom of the third frame; this makes it two multi-hit games in two tries.<\/span><\/p>\n

Quincy University junior Kobe Essien (1-0) stole the night and won it for Kokomo; he gave up nouns on a pair of hits in seven frames of work. Essien also managed to strike out three hitters in his outing.<\/span><\/p>\n

Southern Illinois University-Edwardsville right-hander Jake Kampf (0-1) had a rough Kenosha debut. He was tagged with the loss after allowing three runners to cross the plate in just two innings and a third.<\/span><\/p>\n

Following the defeat, the Kingfish (5-7) sit alone at fifth place in the Great Lakes East.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Jackrabbits (6-6) hop up to grab lone possession of fourth place.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Kingfish will head home to Historic Simmons FIeld for a two-game series against the Green Bay Rockers starting on June 10. First pitch for game one will be at 6:35 PM CT.<\/span><\/p>\n
