Kenosha&#8217;s Hudson Calhoun fanned four hitters to strand three runners, while Royal Oak&#8217;s Gabe Jones collected three strikeouts leaving three on.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Calhoun finished his day in the fourth by escaping another jam after allowing back-to-back singles to begin the inning.<\/p>\n<p>The middle three innings saw more of the same as both teams&#8217; bullpens dominated with five strikeouts combined. The Fish attempted to strike first in the sixth but left the bases loaded on a strikeout by Leprechaun reliever Aidan Cremarosa.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, Royal Oak would capitalize on a Kenosha fielding error with two outs in the eighth. Parker Picot followed with a two-run homer into left field, making it 2-0.<\/p>\n<p>Kenosha responded right away after Karter Wong got hit by a pitch to lead off the inning. Nick Giamarusti entered as a pinch-runner, where he stole second and third base before scoring on a wild pitch.<\/p>\n<p>Royal Oak closer Jake Jekielek shut down the game for the second straight night with a 1-2-3 inning, including two strikeouts.<\/p>\n<p>The Kingfish are back on the road tomorrow at 6:05 p.m. against the Kokomo Jackrabbits.
