This marks the Ignite\u2019s third-straight loss and moves them to last place in the Northwoods League standings.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Hannah Trzinski (Minnesota-Crookston) had to leave her first start of the summer early after a 41-pitch first inning, where the Steam put up a whopping 11 runs. 15 batters made their way to the box in the first frame, punishing a Wausau field that has now given up 55 runs in just three games.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">To get out of the inning, the Ignite turned to Riley Stiles (Lake Forest College), who pitched in 2.2 innings on Tuesday and was coming off less than a day of rest. She struck out the last batter of the inning and would catch three more Steam players on strikes, matching her season high of four Ks. Stiles let up only three earned runs in 4.1 innings pitched before she was replaced by Trzinski in the sixth.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The game looked to be over in the fifth with Wausau down 11 runs, but the Ignite fought on, scoring four to extend the game another inning. Valarie Osthoff (Carroll) doubled to left with two outs, bringing in the first two runs before Kaylie Frydenlund (Minnesota-Duluth) and Reagon Proud (Upper Iowa) batted in the next two.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A six-run top of the sixth from the Steam would put the game out of reach once and for all, as the Ignite couldn\u2019t come back in the bottom of the frame.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">La Crosse\u2019s Avary Makarewicz had a monster night at the plate, hitting six RBI on a double and a sixth-inning bases-clearing triple. She also worked a walk, reaching base four total times on the evening. Makarewicz now sits in second place in the league with 15 RBI, just two behind the Night Mares\u2019 Hilary Blomberg.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Things only get more challenging for Wausau, as they look ahead to a double-header against the 5-3 Minot Honeybees on Thursday night, with game one starting at 5:05 pm CT and game two scheduled for 7:35.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">###<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Leveraging the 31-year success of the Northwoods League, the first for-profit Summer Collegiate Baseball League, Northwoods League Softball (NWLS) is the first for-profit Women\u2019s Summer Collegiate Softball League beginning play in the Upper Midwest in the summer of 2024.\u00a0 The purpose of the League will be to develop players for their college, Olympic and future professional play.\u00a0 Teams will be promoted similar to minor league baseball teams, playing games in front of fans in a fun, friendly, family-oriented environment.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Wausau, WI- Wausau\u2019s return home after a two-game road trip wasn\u2019t as pleasant as they expected, as they fell to  [&#8230;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":20,"featured_media":35797,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[13,14],"tags":[43,45,41,21],"class_list":["post-35796","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-team-news","category-update-ticker","tag-northwoods-league-softball","tag-wausau-ignite","tag-wausau-ignite-softball","tag-wausau-wisconsin"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.5 (Yoast SEO v26.5) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Wausau Extends Losing Streak to Three with Run Rule Loss Against La Crosse - Wausau Ignite<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"The WAUSAU IGNITE are the newest team in Northwoods League Softball, the first for-profit Women\u2019s Summer Collegiate Softball League.
