Kempner ended up throwing 5.1 innings, allowing two earned runs on five hits, and striking out five batters on his way to his first win of the summer. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The rest of the game was shut down by Keanu Mendez (Concordia St. Paul) and Kevin Napoleon (Butler). Mendez pitched 2.2 innings, allowing no runs and no hits while striking out four. Napoleon finished up the ninth inning, allowing no runs and striking out one. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Fond Du Lac put Shane Ritter (Iowa) on the mound to begin the game. He ran into trouble in the third inning after giving up four runs to the Kingfish, which came off of four singles. His night ended early, only going 2.1 innings and giving up five runs. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Bubba Horton (Minnesota) and Connor Cook (UW-La Crosse) pitched the remaining 5.2 innings for Fond Du Lac, giving up one run and one hit combined. A good effort, but too little too late for the Spiders. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Leading the way at the plate for the Fish was outfielder Connor Doyle (San Diego). His final line offensively was one hit, two walks, two stolen bases and an RBI coming off a sacrifice fly. Jack Weiller (Virginia) also had a single and two RBI\u2019s to add to the high scoring effort. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">This offensive outburst is a great sign for the Kingfish, after dropping multiple games by one run. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The Fish look to keep up the scoring when they take on the Wisconsin Woodchucks tomorrow at Historic Simmons Field, first pitch set for 7:05. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">&#8212;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The Kenosha Kingfish are a member of the finest developmental league for elite college baseball players, the Northwoods League.
