Wisconsin Rapids gets a strong defensive effort and runs up score in big win over Mallards<\/em><\/p>\n

Wisconsin Rapids, Wis. \u2013 The Wisconsin Rapids Rafters\u2019 (7-7) offense found a rhythm early and posted 12 runs on their way to a 12-1 victory over division opponent Madison Mallards (11-3).<\/p>\n

Osvaldo Tovalin put the Rafters up early with an RBI double in the first inning. One inning later, Wisconsin Rapids posted four runs, including a two-run home run by Richie Schiekofer. Anthony Galason came in to score on a double play in the third to extend the Rafters\u2019 lead to 6-0.<\/p>\n

In the fourth inning, Jake Dunham hit a two-run shot to put Rapids up 8-0. Dunham scored later in the sixth inning on a ball put in play by Anthony Galason. After Madison got on the board with a run in the top of the seventh, the Rafters answered with two runs in the bottom of the frame on RBI singles by Schiekofer and Dunham.<\/p>\n

Leading 11-1, Wisconsin Rapids added an insurance run in the eighth inning on a solo home run by Edarian Williams. The Rafters racked up 13 hits on the night and tied their best offensive performance of the season.<\/p>\n
