Kenosha Falls Short 8-4<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

The Kenosha Kingfish fell to the Kalamazoo Growlers 8-4\u00a0 to wrap up the home stand Monday night.<\/span><\/p>\n

With the loss, the Kingfish have now dropped four consecutive games, and\u00a0 the Growlers have won seven. This was also the first time the team has dropped a series at home all season.<\/span><\/p>\n

Edgardo Villegas gave Kalamazoo an early lead when he hit a two-run double to plate Colton Coca and Daniel Pruitt in the top of the second frame. Kenosha native Josh Leslie evened everything out in the bottom half when he hit a missile over the left-center wall that sent Anthony Mangano trotting home with him.<\/span><\/p>\n

Trey Lipsey hit a sacrifice fly out to center that sent Coca home to give the Growlers a 3-2 lead in the top of the fourth.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Kalamazoo extended their lead to 6-2 in the sixth frame after singles by Griffin O\u2019Ferrall (scoring VIllegas) and Ryan Dykstra (scoring O\u2019Ferrall and Anthony Stephan).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Kenosha got one run back in the seventh when James McCoy scored Taylor Darden on an RBI groundout to make it 6-3.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Growlers extended their lead in the eighth when Coca hit Luke Storm home on a flair single, and they tacked on one more insurance run in the ninth when Storm plated O\u2019Ferrall on a single of his own. The Kingfish started a ninth-inning rally with consecutive base hits by McCoy (triple) and Jacob Tobias (double, scoring McCoy), but the Growlers retired three of the next four batters to complete the sweep.<\/span><\/p>\n

Villegas led the way for the visitors on offense, as he went 2-for-3 with a double, a run and a pair of RBIs on the evening.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Tobias got on base four times out of five for Kenosha, as he went 2-for-3 with a double, two walks and an RBI.<\/span><\/p>\n

Lefty Travis Bensmore (1-1) got the win at Historic Simmons Field, as he gave up two runs, seven hits and three walks while striking out four in 5 innings of work.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Clark Candiotti (1-1) had his shortest start in a Kingfish uniform to take the loss, as he allowed three runs, seven hits and three walks while striking out five in 3.2 frames.<\/span><\/p>\n

Kenosha (11-11) is in third place in the Great Lakes East division, and they sit 1.5 games behind Kalamazoo (12-9), the new division leaders.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Kingfish will start off a two-game set against Battle Creek on June 22. The first pitch is at 6:35 p.m. EST.<\/span><\/p>\n
