\n\tThe Thunder Bay Border Cats leave Wisconsin with a split in action at Carson Park winning 4-3 over the Eau Claire Express.<\/em>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Thunder Bay Border Cats (17-31, 3-10) stopped the North Division leading Eau Claire Express (25-22, 9-5) 4-3 in action at Carson Park in Wisconsin. Robb Paller (Columbia University) scored the game winning run on a sacrifice fly to left by Tyler Rolland (Southern Illinois) in the 6th inning. Ben Allison (Belhaven) also pitched two shutout innings to stop the Express from making the comeback.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tSal Taormina (Kean University) went 2-4 with a run scored to lead the Cats. Rolland and Paller each went 1-3 and drove in one run and scored once, while Paller picked up his 11th double of the campaign. Ty Blankmeyer (St. John's University) also went 1-3 and collected an RBI.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tEau Claire were led by the bottom of the order, with 9-hitter Brady Burzynski going 3-3 with a triple and a run scored. Backstop Brian Mundell went 2-4 with a run scored. The top five in the Eau Claire order were kept at bay by Border Cats pitching going 0-18 with six walks and an RBI.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tAllison picked up his first save allowing just one hit and putting three Express down on strikes, working with a one-run lead to get the final six outs. Devin McLemore (Winston-Salem State) took the win out of the pen (2-3) working 1 1\/3 shutdown baseball, striking out one. Starter Zach Speer (Trinity University) had a few borderline pitches not go his way and walked five, but he showed great battle instincts as he only allowed one run on two hits, striking out two with a no decision.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tExpress starter CJ Eldred worked six innings and was unfortunate to take the loss (2-3). He allowed all four runs, three earned on seven hits striking out four. Miles Nablo and Aron McRee did not allow a hit in the last three innings as they gave Eau Claire every chance to win the game.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tThree consecutive hits to start the Top of the 6th inning put some distance between Thunder Bay and Eau Claire. With the Cats up 2-1, Cory Kay (Missouri State) got things going on a single, then the next hitter Paller doubled to plate Kay. Christian Correa's (Nicholls State) base hit put runners on the corner before Rolland flew out to left to score Paller.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Express would ground into a double play and hit a sacrifice fly to plate runs in the 7th and 8th (before Allison entered) to make things close but that would be it as Allison closed it out.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Border Cats are back home to start a four game homestand on Thursday night. They welcome in the Mankato MoonDogs (29-22, 8-7) to TBaytel Park with first pitch slated for 7:05pm. Righthander Ryan Powers (Miami-Ohio) is scheduled to take the mound for the Cats. Powers is 1-1 with a 4.50 ERA and leads Thunder Bay with 26 strikeouts. The MoonDogs have 6'7" Mitchell Traver as their probable starter. The Freshman righty is 0-1 (3.68) making his his second start of the summer. Tonight is also PGA Tour Canada Night, with the first 50 fans through the gates receiving a tourney day pass to the Staal Foundation Open at Whitewater GC and a chance to win a full weekend pass to the event.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
