\n\tSommerfeld Makes Rafters Debut<\/em>\n<\/p>\n

\n\t <\/p>\n

\n\t\tWisconsin Rapids, Wis. – After dropping the first game of a two game series with La Crosse by a score of 10-5, the Wisconsin Rapids Rafters (1-1) look to earn a split on Friday night as they return to face the Loggers (2-1) at Copeland Park. First pitch for the game is set for 7:05 pm.\n\t<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tTaking the ball for the Rafters will be Wisconsin native Luke Sommerfeld (St. Louis), who will be making his first start in a Wisconsin Rapids uniform. Hailing from Elm Grove, WI, Sommerfeld is coming off a solid freshman season for the Billikins in which he made 21 appearances including one start, and finished with a 2-0 record and twenty-eight strikeouts in 31.1 innings of work. Standing 6’6” tall, Sommerfeld provides a big presence on the mound and will look to keep the Loggers’ bats quiet.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tOpposing Sommerfeld will be right-hander Jake Fromson (Missouri State). Fromson has already made one appearance this season throwing 2.0 innings against Green Bay on May 26th. He allowed two hits and tallied one strikeout in the short stint. Fromson will have to deal with a strong top of the order for the Rafters that saw Zack Domingues (Long Beach St.), Jake Sandlin (Georgia College) and Mitch McGeein (Eastern Michigan) combine for six of the teams eight hits and three RBIs in last nights ballgame.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Rafters will continue their road trip with a game against the Madison Mallards on Saturday night at Warner Park before returning home on Sunday May 31st to face those same Mallards in the back half of a home and home series. The first pitch for Sunday’s game is scheduled for 5:05pm with the gates opening at 4:05 and will feature an Incourage Community Foundation “Summer’s Here” Kite giveaway for all kids in attendance.\n<\/p>\n
