WILLMAR, MN  – The St. Cloud Rox (28-15) fell short to the Willmar Stingers (21-21) 14-4 on Friday and will look to split the road series on Saturday. 

Tanner Recchio (University of Minnesota) ran home on a wild pitch in the top of the first inning to give St. Cloud a 1-0 advantage.

The Rox next found the scoreboard in the top of the fifth inning when Jackson Legg (Georgia Gwinnett College) sent the baseball back to the left field wall for an RBI double.

Alex Dupuy (University of Alabama Birmingham) jumpstarted the offense in the top of the sixth with a double of his own, and was later brought home on an RBI single from Recchio.

The offense showed a spark in the top of the eighth inning, loading the bases. Kaden Amundson (Arkansas State University) took advantage and made it home on a wild pitch.

Ultimately the rally fell short, but the Rox have the chance to get revenge and even up the road series on Saturday.

The All-Star Trophy and Awards Star of the Game is Tanner Recchio.
