A three-day layoff is over as the Rafters host the Loggers at 1:05pm<\/em><\/p>\n

Wisconsin Rapids, Wis. \u2013 The Wisconsin Rapids Rafters return to Witter Field for a Tuesday matinee versus the La Crosse Loggers.<\/p>\n

Wisconsin Rapids looks to keep up their winning ways behind a pitching staff that has excelled this year. The Rafters have a pod-best 3.00 ERA and 341 strikeouts as a pitching staff.<\/p>\n

Today, the Rafters return to action with Travis Adams on the mound. Adams has 22 innings pitched on the year, and the third-most strikeouts with 28. Among starters, Adams has the fourth-best ERA on the team at 0.82. La Crosse will throw lefty Tony Roca to attempt to stop one of the best offenses in the league.<\/p>\n

Offensively, the Rafters lead the league in home runs and are second to Fond du Lac in runs per game in the Wisconsin-Illinois Pod. On Friday, Jack-Thomas Wold tied Wisconsin\u2019s Caleb Denny and Waterloo\u2019s Patrick Ferguson for the league lead in home runs with his sixth. The Rafters used Wold\u2019s blast to win Friday\u2019s game and improve to 21-9.<\/p>\n
