\n\tThe Rochester Honkers saw their two game winning streak come to an end Tuesday night in Duluth as they fell 8-1 at the hands of the Huskies. Alex Evans (Barton CC) was charged with his first loss on the season, dropping his record to 4-1. Ryan Tapani (St. Olaf) earned the win for Duluth.\n<\/p>\n

\n\t \n<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Honkers struggled at the plate garnering only three hits on the night, two of which came from Dempsey Grover (UC Santa Barbara).\n<\/p>\n

\n\t \n<\/p>\n

\n\tDuluth held a 3-0 lead in the fifth inning when Grover would break up Tapani’s perfect game and shutout with his first homerun of the year and bring the Honkers within two runs at 3-1.\n<\/p>\n

\n\t \n<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Huskies would put on two more runs in the bottom of the fifth for a 5-1 lead, and pile on three insurance runs in the seventh to force the series split with an 8-1 win. The Honkers took the first game of the series 7-6 on Monday.\n<\/p>\n

\n\t \n<\/p>\n
