They got out to an early lead, got stellar pitching from Matthew Heard and Nick Paulsen, and slammed the door late.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Heard put together his best outing of the season by far, spinning five scoreless frames with seven strikeouts and no walks. He faced the minimum through four innings and retired the first nine hitters he saw.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cThat\u2019s exactly what we needed out of him, he had a little bit of trouble in his last start with the finger, obviously that thing healed up pretty good,\u201d said field manager Kirk Shrider after the game.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Paulsen tossed three innings in relief and allowed just two runs on three hits while striking out one. After being the piggyback to Bryson Moore in his last two appearances, he provided some much-needed stability out of the bullpen after the doubleheader Thursday.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Perhaps most impressively, the Rafters needed <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">no home runs<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> to score their ten runs in the ballgame. The majority of their runs scored throughout this week&#8217;s homestand had been due to round-trippers, but WR proved that they didn\u2019t need to do that to notch the win.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cWe had a couple come close, but at the end of the day, 14 hits and 10 runs, that&#8217;s doing your job,\u201d said Shrider. \u201cThat&#8217;s what we need to do going forward, not always count on the big one\u2026 having clutch hitting and those timely hits always are big.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The Rafters had tons of offensive standouts throughout the game, with Owen McElfatrick scoring four runs from the leadoff spot, Max McGwire driving in three runs, and NWL all-star Jorge DeGoti knocking three hits of his own. WR had a total of <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">14 hits <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">in the game.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cI\u2019ve developed a lot\u2026 Everyone&#8217;s able to push me to get where I\u2019m at now,\u201d said DeGoti after the game. \u201cJust because yesterday we came here and it wasn\u2019t our day, that doesn\u2019t mean that the next day isn\u2019t going to be our day.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Juan Berrios entered in the ninth and allowed one unearned run, but recorded the final three outs to finish off Lakeshore. Overall, this was a solid top-to-bottom performance for Wisconsin Rapids, which was a crucial sight after the two losses on Thursday. And after those losses, Shrider knew exactly which buttons to push to get the best out of his squad the next day.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cSometimes the best thing is to not talk to \u2018em at all, I think everybody understands what the situation was and what happened, there was no reason to berate anybody about it,\u201d he said. \u201cIt&#8217;s baseball, sometimes things just don\u2019t happen right\u2026 we find a nice cruising altitude and hopefully take care of business the following day, which is what we did today.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Wisconsin Rapids finished off the series with Lakeshore on Saturday, with first pitch for game two scheduled for 6:35.
