The lone Honkers run came in on a sacrifice fly by center fielder Alex Schultz (Nebraska Omaha). In the game, the Honkers only earned two hits off of Yinger, who completed his first start this season. Yinger pitched seven innings, allowed just one run on two hits, two walks and nine strikeouts in his first win of the season.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tThe big Stingers inning came in the top of the fifth when Willmar scored three runs on three hits and one error. Honkers starter Michael Freeman (Oklahoma State) allowed a leadoff infield single and injured himself attempting to cover first base.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tNick Highberger (Creighton) replaced Freeman and promptly hit the first batter he faced. He allowed two Stingers hits and three runs to cross the plate before being removed in a 4-1 game by L.J. Brewster (Hawaii). The insurance runs would be more than enough for the Stingers to hold on to the win Tuesday night and end the Honkers&rsquo; brief three game win streak.&nbsp;\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tThey&rsquo;ll meet the Stingers again at Mayo Field on Sunday for another two-game series with Willmar.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tTomorrow, the Honkers will welcome the Thunder Bay Border Cats for their first series in Rochester. Wednesday&rsquo;s game is set for a 7:05 p.m. with Will Bamesberger (Creighton) prepped to make his first start this season. Tomorrow&rsquo;s game will also play host to the annual Mascot Olympics at Mayo Field.
