Jackrabbits Take Season Lead Over Woodchucks

WAUSAU, Wis. – After tying the game in the ninth, Wausau was not able to complete the comeback

Saturday night at Athletic Park.

Down 7-5, Jake Baker (Kansas) hit a two-RBI single in the ninth to tie the game to force extras – but that is

where Kokomo (7-14/20-35) would shine.

After three walks to start the inning, the Jackrabbits would take a 12-7 lead after scoring five runs in the

frame.

The Woodchucks (9-10/29-25) would score one in the tenth from a Jesse Donohoe (Georgia State) RBI

single, but would end up falling by a score of 12-8.

Key Moments:

The Woodchucks scored five of the eight runs in the first inning, with two runs each being driven in by

Colin Brueggemann (Oklahoma State) and Mike Adair (Dayton). Brueggemann also hit two doubles in

Saturday’s loss.

Dalton Pearson (Cincinnati) had his 18th multi-hit game of the season, going 2/6.

Up Next:

Wausau welcomes in the Kokomo Jackrabbits again Sunday, July 23 for a 1:05 p.m. first pitch and the final

game before the All-Star break. It’ll be a family funday and the hilarious heelers will be at Athletic Park.
