Seven runs and a pair of homers allowed Willmar to pull away in the ballgame.<\/p>\n<p>Rochester led after a three-run first inning, Ryan Thibert (Chico St) and Seth Betts (Crown College) reached base to set the table for a Marco Castillo (Claremont McKenna) RBI double. With two-outs in the inning, Eric Rataczak (Post Grad) drove in a pair with a double.<\/p>\n<p>The Honkers would be held off the scoreboard the rest of the way, and a four-run fourth for Willmar allowed the Stingers to take control. Reid Homan (North Alabama) drove a game-tying three run homer to left, and TJ Curd (Arizona) drove in the go-ahead run with an RBI single.<\/p>\n<p>Willmar added three more in the fifth, Carter Howell (Augustana) went deep to start the inning with two-more runs scoring on a pair of base-hits helped by a Honkers error. The Stingers continued the scoring as the game progressed, a run in the sixth, three in the seventh, two in the eighth, and three runs in the ninth.<\/p>\n<p>Marcus Krupke (Bethel) made his Honkers debut on the mound, retiring nine of the first ten batters he faced before leaving after 5.2 innings.<\/p>\n<p>Rochester falls to 2-3 with the loss. The Honkers square off the Willmar for game two of the series tomorrow, first pitch is slated for 6:05 at Mayo Field.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt\"><em>By Nick DeLuca\/\/Broadcasting and Media Relations Intern<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Honkers dropped the opening game of their two-game set with Willmar on Friday, 16-3 the final score.
