BISMARCK, ND – After a perfect homestand, the Stingers hit the road and suffered their first loss in over a week, losing 9-4 to the Bismarck Larks.<\/span><\/p>\n

Willmar got on the board first in the first to go up 1-0, but the Larks had an answer.<\/span><\/p>\n

Bismarck answered with three in the bottom half of the inning, and followed it up with two each in the 2nd and 3rd to take a 7-1 lead.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Stingers got one back in the 6th on a Rhett Stokes (Nebraska) RBI single, and Bismarck answered to push the lead back to 6 at 8-2.<\/span><\/p>\n

Again Willmar made a comeback effort in the 8th, pushing across two more with sacrifice flies from Stokes and Colin Hynek (Georgia State), but it was too little, too late.<\/span><\/p>\n

Hemponix Relief Pitcher of the Game Will Henry (Augustana) was a bright spot for the Stingers, filling in four frames in relief, allowing just one run and striking out six.<\/span><\/p>\n

Stingers and Larks matchup again Friday night in Bismarck with first pitch at 7:05 pm.<\/span><\/p>\n
