Flemer pitched with the Loggers last season, and was fourth in the Northwoods League with a 2.37 ERA in 57 innings.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tHis home opener start, did not go well though. Two walks and a single in the first three at-bats of the game loaded the bases with no outs. He hit the next batter on the first pitch, and was taken out of the game two pitches later with an arm injury. Zach Kesterson (Duke) took his place and cleaned up the inning as best as he could, leaving the inning with a 3-0 deficit.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tBoth Kesterson and Andrew Burnick (Pennsylvania) for St. Cloud head each other&rsquo;s offense quiet until the 4<sup>th<\/sup>. David Jacob (Quincy) and Luis Trevino (Navarro) sparked the Logger offense with back-to-back solo home runs.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tBrandon Larkin-Guilfoyle (Davenport) continued the pace with a one-out solo home run in the 5<sup>th<\/sup> inning. That took Burnick out of the game. Two batters later, Kevin Collard (San Diego) introduced the new the pitcher to the game with a solo home run for himself, giving La Crosse a 4-3 lead in the 5<sup>th<\/sup>.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tThe four home run mark tied the 3<sup>rd<\/sup> most home runs by a Logger team in a single game.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tZach Kesterson continued his long relief outing and it was a beauty. He lasted 7.2 innings, all scoreless, and surrendered only two hits. He struck out seven Rox batters on the night.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tChris Boettcher (Illinois Central) secured the Loggers&rsquo; first win of the season with a 1.1 inning save.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tThe win puts the Loggers at 1-2 for the young season. St. Cloud is still searching for their first win of the season. The Lumbermen go for the series sweep tomorrow at Copeland Park at 7:05 PM, gates open a 6. If you can&rsquo;t make the game, listen to the game on the Loggers Radio Network on Eagle 102.7 or on the La Crosse Loggers Radio app.&nbsp;\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&nbsp;\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<a href=\"http:\/\/northwoods.bbstats.pointstreak.com\/boxscore.html?gameid=316632\">Box Score<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp;
