A couple of back breaking home runs by Loggers center fielder Richard Prigatano (Long Beach State) and shortstop Matt Chapman (Cal State Fullerton) combined with great defense led the La Crosse Loggers (13-9, 39-18) to a 7-1 win over the Madison Mallards (31-26, 15-7). With the win the Loggers took the first two games of the four games series.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\">Neither team could threaten on offense until the fourth inning, when the Loggers loaded the bases with no outs on starter Trevor Foss (Texas A&#038;M-Corpus Christi). Foss gave the Loggers nothing though, striking out the side to escape the jam.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\">The Loggers loaded the bases again in the fifth inning, but would not waste the opportunity this time around, scoring four runs on a grand slam by Prigatano.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\">Chapman added on to the lead in the seventh inning with a three run homer off of Mallards reliever Will Lamarche (Chabot College), making the score 7-0.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\">The Mallards responded in the seventh inning with a home run of their own, a solo shot by right fielder Jack Livingston (Northwestern) to put the Mallards deficit at 7-1. <span style=\"mso-spacerun: yes;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\">Foss (3-7) was tagged with his seventh loss of the season, giving up four runs on five hits while fanning eight hitters through 5.0 innings of work.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\">Loggers starter James Guillen (USC) picked up his fourth win of the season, going 7.0 innings in which he held the Mallards to one run on five hits. Guillen (4-2) was particularly effective from the windup, getting six of his seven strikeouts with no base runners.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"><b style=\"mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;\"><i style=\"mso-bidi-font-style: normal;\"><span style=\"mso-ascii-font-family: Cambria; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-hansi-font-family: Cambria; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: black; mso-themecolor: text1; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;\">News and Notes:<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\">Both starting pitchers were impressive on the mound tonight, combining for 15 strikeouts.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\">The Loggers infield showed some serious leather to stiffle the Mallards offense, featuring several impressive defensive plays from third baseman Kevin Kramer (UCLA), second baseman Brendon Farney (California), Chapman, and Guillen.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\">With tonight\u2019s loss the Mallards finished their four game home stand with a 1-3 record and dropped to 20-11 at home this season.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\">Neither side garnered much production out of their bottom three hitters, with the two sides going a combined 2-for-23 with 13 strikeouts.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\">Tonight\u2019s attendance was 6,440.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"><b style=\"mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;\"><i style=\"mso-bidi-font-style: normal;\"><span style=\"mso-ascii-font-family: Cambria; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-hansi-font-family: Cambria; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman';\">Woodchucks Watch:<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\">As the Mallards continue their chase of the Woodchucks for the second half South Division title and a spot in the post-season, the Mallards will continue to keep an eye on the Woodchucks the rest of the season\u2026<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\">Scoreboard Watch: Woodchucks 4, Bombers 10 Final<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"><b style=\"mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;\"><i style=\"mso-bidi-font-style: normal;\"><span style=\"mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman';\">Up Next:<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">After tonight\u2019s game the Mallards leave the \u201cDuck Pond\u201d for their longest road trip of the season, a five game odyssey that takes them to La Crosse to finish their series with the Loggers and Eau Claire to play a three game set against the Eau Claire Express (9-13, 20-36).<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">The Mallards return to the \u201cDuck Pond\u201d on Sunday, August 5<sup>th<\/sup> to start a five game series with the Lakeshore Chinooks (11-10, 28-28).
