\n\tWisconsin Rapids falls 3-0 to Madison at Witter Field<\/em>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tWisconsin Rapids, Wis.<\/strong> – The Rafters dropped a tight game on Wednesday night, falling 3-0 to the Madison Mallards at Witter Field. It appeared the game would be a pitchers’ duel as both teams were held scoreless through the first five innings, but with one swing of the bat the Mallards took a 2-0 lead in the sixth on a two-run homer to deep left. Madison added an insurance run in the seventh and the Rafters couldn’t string anything together as they fell, 3-0.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tJake Johansmeier (Eastern Illinois) took the loss for Wisconsin Rapids, but pitched well in his first start of the season. The righty went 6.1 innings, allowing three runs while scattering 11 hits. Dalton DSpain took the win for Madison and Mike Kaelin picked up the save. Wisconsin Rapids moved to 13-14 with the loss, Madison improved to 18-12.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Rafters looked poised to take an early lead in the game, loading the bases in the first inning. The Mallards pitching, however, had other plans as they held Wisconsin Rapids to just three hits. Bryce Jordan (LSU) was 1-for-4 on the day, picking up his first hit as a Rafter, while Sam Tolleson (Central Florida) and Mitch McGeein (Eastern Michigan) had the other two hits for Wisconsin Rapids.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Rafters are back in action on Thursday night at Witter Field when Wisconsin Rapids welcomes the La Crosse Loggers for the first game of a home-and-home series. First pitch will be at 7:05 p.m. and gates open at 6:05 p.m. Duncan Disability Law S.C. sponsor presents a salute to the 40th Anniversary of Saturday Night with a cowbell giveaway for fans in attendance. It’s also a Thirsty Thursday at Witter Field, featuring two-for-one domestic taps from the time the gates open through the fifth inning.  \n<\/p>\n
