MEQUON, Wi.- The Lakeshore Chinooks are back in Mequon after a four-game road trip where they went 1-3. With their magic number at four, the Lakeshore Chinooks open a two-game set against the Madison Mallards tonight at Moonlight Graham field with first pitch set for 6:05 pm CDT.

Tonight’s starting pitching matchup is between Chinook Eli Niemiec and Mallard Drayton Lou. In his last start on July 31 in a 5-1 shortened win over Royal Oak, Niemiec struck out eight batters in five innings of one-run ball.

The lineup stays the same for the Chinooks in tonight’s contest.
