After Chinooks right fielder Forrest Chadwick (Southern Maine) hit a game tying grand slam in the ninth inning, center fielder Charlie Markson (Notre Dame) completed the comeback effort with a walk-off sacrifice fly in the 12<sup>th<\/sup> inning to send the Lakeshore Chinooks (16-15, 33-33) home 5-4 winners over the Madison Mallards (20-11, 36-30). With the victory the Chinooks evened up the series at two games each and set up a rubber match in tomorrow\u2019s series finale.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\">The Mallards started the game strong, scoring in the first inning when a slow rolling grounder by first baseman Jeff Zimmerman (Northern Illinois) allowed right fielder Tyler Marincov (North Florida) to reach home from second.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\">In the fifth inning the Mallards doubled their lead when an error by Chinooks first baseman German Reyes (Winston Salem) let Mallards left fielder Jack Livingston (Northwestern) score from second.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\">The Mallards followed up the next inning when a failed double play attempt by the Chinooks on a ball put in play by Livingston, allowed second baseman Mike Reuvekamp (California) to score from third.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\">Meanwhile Mallards starter Kurt Giller (Oral Roberts) returned from the gem in his previous start to deliver an even better performance tonight. Through 6.0 innings the right-hander struck out seven while not allowing a run.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\">The Mallards added an insurance run in the eighth inning when left fielder Mitch Elliot (Xavier) doubled home designated hitter Derek Fisher (Virginia) for a 4-0 lead.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\">Just when it seemed that the Mallards were going to walk away with their third straight win over the Chinooks, Chadwick hit a towering grand slam to right field off of Mallards reliever Kyle Barbeck (Missouri) in the ninth inning to tie the game and send the action into extras.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\">Both team\u2019s closers came in to keep the game scoreless until the 12<sup>th<\/sup> inning, when Markson\u2019s fly ball to right field was deep enough to score third baseman Rex Morrow (Madison College) from third and let the Chinooks walk-off winners.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\">Mallards closer John Hamilton (UNC-Charlotte) took his first loss of the season, surrendering one run on three hits and two strikeouts through 3.1 innings of work.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\">Chinooks closer Tyler Sparger (Indian Hills CC) picked up his third win of the season, pitching 4.0 shutout innings of relief to setup the victory.\u00a0<\/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\">Tonight\u2019s loss was the first time this season that the Mallards had lost a game when leading after eight innings.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\">Lucky enough for the Chinooks, Markson was able to deliver the win in the 12<sup>th<\/sup> inning. Had the inning concluded in a tie, play would have been suspended until tomorrow due to Mequon city ordinances.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\">Tonight\u2019s attendance was 2,444.<\/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\">The Mallards cap their five game series with the Chinooks on the road tomorrow night.
