This came after Jackrabbit starter Kyle Manship committed a balk, scoring Noah Jouras.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Kokomo immediately responded with a pair of two-out runs with Cole Yearsley\u2019s RBI single and Jack Anderson\u2019s advancement from third on a throwing error.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Brandon Nigh added some insurance in the third with an RBI walk, scoring Tanner Reaves to make it 4-2.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">As dark skies approached Historic Simmons Field, both teams traded a pair of runs in the fifth. Back-to-back two-out singles by Jack Anderson and Jake Lambdin tied the game at four for Kokomo. Kenosha\u2019s Nate Mieszkowski\u2019s RBI double and Gavin Taylor\u2019s RBI single got those two runs back, making it 6-4.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The Jackrabbits answered back again with Jack Dupuis\u2019 double to right and a fielding error to even the game up at six. Unfortunately, poor weather caused this game to be suspended until Monday, July 1st, at Historic Simmons Field.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The game resumed with dominant relief pitching. Kokomo\u2019s Paul Farley and Kenosha\u2019s Tsubasa Tomii allowed three total hits with six combined strikeouts through the next three and a half innings.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Extra innings brought out the bats for Kokomo as Aidan Mcaskie\u2019s triple and Bodee Wright\u2019s double gave them a two-run lead.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Justin Hausser led off the bottom of the inning with a single, but Cy Miller retired the next three hitters for the 8-6 Kokomo win.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>=====<\/p>\n<p>Game 2*****<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The Jackrabbits\u2019 offense carried over into the second game after JJ Dutton\u2019s two-run homer off Tanner Johnson.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Kenosha cut the deficit in half with Will Plattner\u2019s sacrifice fly, scoring Brandon Nigh in the second.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">However, Kokomo largely expanded their lead in the fourth, beginning with James Oman\u2019s RBI single to left. Matt Flaherty followed with a three-run blast to left field, making it 6-1 Jackrabbits. The fifth and final run of the inning came across on Bodee Wright\u2019s groundout to second.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Two more runs further extended the Kokomo lead in the fifth with Phelan\u2019s RBI triple and Flaherty\u2019s sacrifice fly.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The Kingfish added two to their total after a double-play groundout and throwing error by catcher Jack Anderson.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The final three innings saw quality relief pitching with seven combined strikeouts between the two teams.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The Kingfish conclude this season\u2019s first half tomorrow against Kokomo at Historic Simmons Field at 6:35 p.m. <\/span>Follow @Kenosha_Kingfish on X or watch the game on Northwoods League+ for updates.<\/p>\n<p>###<\/p>\n<p><i>The Kenosha Kingfish are a member of the finest developmental league for elite college baseball players, the Northwoods League.\u00a0<em>The Northwoods League is the proven leader in the development of elite college baseball players.
