\n\t\"PostMadison, Wis. (July 6) <\/strong>– Despite Scott Tyler’s (Ball State) pair of doubles and trio of runs batted in and four scoreless innings of bullpen work from Nick Gruener (Harvard), field manager Donnie Scott and the Madison Mallards (3-2, 23-17) were defeated by the Alexandria Blue Anchors (4-2, 16-25) by a final score of 5-4 Monday night at Knute Nelson Stadium.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tThe loss was the second in as many days for the Mallards, who now have two games remaining in their five-game road-trip.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tMadison struck early on Monday night courtesy of Tyler’s single to score Anthony Gonsolin (St. Mary’s College) in the top of the first. Andrew Beckwith (Coastal Carolina) then proceeded to toss a scoreless bottom-of-the-first against the Blue Anchors lineup, though he ran into trouble in the home half of the second when Alexandria erupted for a quartet of runs against him to claim a 4-1 advantage after two full frames. Beckwith exited the contest after two innings of work.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Mallards responded with a pair of runs in the road half of the third, both of which were provided by Tyler’s double to trim Alexandria’s lead to 4-3. Steve Sada’s RBI single in the bottom of the fourth reestablished the Blue Anchors’ two-run advantage, after which the Mallards mustered up one run from the fifth inning on. Tony Butler (Madison College) reached base in the top of the ninth, though Ro Coleman’s (Vanderbilt) ground-out ended any hopes of a comeback.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tWith the loss behind them, the Mallards will turn their collective attention toward Tuesday’s pivotal series opener with the Willmar Stingers (4-1, 27-12). First pitch is scheduled for 7:05 p.m. from Bill Taunton Stadium.
