Mequon, WI- The Lakeshore Chinooks (2-3) fell at home to the Green Bay Bullfrogs Sunday night, 4-2. Although the Chinooks got six solid innings out of Austin Havekost (Kent State), the Lakeshore offense had fits against Green Bay starter, Michael Bohlke, who allowed two runs over seven strong innings.

The Bullfrogs broke the scoreless tie in the top of the 3^rd, as Green Bay plated two runs to take the 2-0 lead over Lakeshore. Mikey Filia hit a grounder to 3^rd base, where Matt Burch (Arkansas) proceeded to throw to 2^nd, but Matthew Mika (Central Florida) received the ball and threw it over the head of Daniel DeSimone (Oklahoma State) in hopes to complete the double play. On the error from Mika, Alonzo Jones hopped home, plating Green Bay’s first run.

Next man up for the Bullfrogs was Troy Johnston, who gave Green Bay its second run of the inning on an RBI single. The base knock plated Mikey Filia.

The Chinooks would get on the board in the bottom half of the 6^th inning, thanks to an Owen Miller (Illinois State) sacrifice fly. Matthew Mika led off the inning with an infield single, and after advancing to 2^nd and stealing 3^rd, came home to score on the Miller sacrifice fly.

Green Bay wasn’t done scoring, as the Bullfrogs plated two more in the top of the 7^th. Willie Bourbon led off the inning with a single and later scored on a Riley Smith RBI groundout. A Luke Sommerfeld (Saint Louis) wild pitch allowed Zack Plunkett to score after he singled earlier in the inning, extending the Bullfrogs’ lead to three.

Lakeshore would tack on a run in the bottom half of the inning, thanks to an infield RBI single from Matt Burch. The slow-roller to the right side of the infield was placed perfectly, and Daniel DeSimone was able to trot home after he led off the inning with a single of his own.

Darren Kelly came in out of the Green Bay bullpen in the bottom of the 9^th to try and close out the game and secure the 4-2 lead. After Daniel DeSimone led off the inning with a walk, it was erased by a Caleb Dean (Lamar) double play. Tim DalPorto (Kent State) then struck out, as the Bullfrogs secured a 4-2 victory.

This game featured two starting pitchers who turned in quality efforts for their respective teams. For the Chinooks, Austin Havekost allowed just two runs (one earned) over six innings, giving up just three hits and two walks, while striking out four.
