ROCHESTER, Minn. – One night after Willmar scored a franchise-record 16 runs in one game, the Stingers put up 21 runs on the scoreboard in a 21-11 victory against the Honkers at Mayo Field Monday night.

Kenny Roberts (Alabama) had six RBIs in his first two at-bats after a two-run triple with two outs in the first inning and a grand slam with two outs in the second inning helped propel Willmar to a 9-1 lead after two frames. Roberts earned Northwoods League Player of the Night honors, marking the second-straight night a Stinger received the distinction after Corben Green (Louisiana Monroe) was named the Northwoods League Player of the Night on Sunday. Roberts’ seven home runs ranks third in the Northwoods League, and 17 of his 25 RBIs this year have come with two outs in an inning.

Forrestt Allday (Central Arkansas) and Zach Benson (Stephen F. Austin) each added their first home runs of the season as part of a 10-run sixth inning the give the Stingers a 19-2 lead.

Willmar has already hit 35 home runs this season. The team record for most homers in a season is 37, which was set last year.

The Stingers scored their first run of the game on an RBI single by Michael Suchy (Florida Gulf Coast) to drive home Mitch Rowan (San Francisco) after Rowan singled and stole his team-best 12^th stolen base. Suchy went 2-for-5 in the game with two RBIs to increase his team-leading batting average to .348. Suchy’s 40 RBIs this year lead the Northwoods League by four (Ben Moore, Alexandria, 36). Rowan scored three times in the game and leads the team in that category with 36 runs. He added a three-run double later in the game to give him 21 RBIs this season.
