Vranesic allowed six runs on the night and ended up with the loss, his first decision. Kenosha also saw pitching performances from Keanu Mendez (Concordia-St. Paul) and Garrett McGraw (Madison College). McGraw\u2019s appearance was his debut with the Kingfish this season.<\/p>\n<p>At the plate, Carson McCusker (Oklahoma State) led the way going 3-for-4 with a run scored. This marks the second game in a row that the Kingfish have had a batter go for three hits. On Tuesday night it was Jack Weiller (Virginia) who 1-for-4 on Wednesday.<\/p>\n<p>The hits were well spread on as six different Kingfish batters had a hit by the end of the game. Scott Dubrule (Jacksonville), Devin Ortiz (Virginia), Will Wagner (Liberty), and Neil Lambert (Bowling Green) all had one run batted in each.<\/p>\n<p>Tomorrow, the Kenosha Kingfish will send Colton Johnson (Illinois State) to the mound when they visit Kalamazoo for the first time this season. The Growlers (16-6) visited Kenosha once already this season when they took both games. Since then, Kalamazoo have won 10 of 12 games and are on an eight-game win streak.<\/p>\n<p>First pitch is at 6:05 p.m. CT with the Kingfish looking to break the Kalamazoo winning streak. The game can be followed online and be streamed on the Kenosha Kingfish Radio Network.<\/p>\n<p>&#8212;<\/p>\n<p><em>The Kenosha Kingfish are a member of the finest developmental league for elite college baseball players, the Northwoods League.
