\n\tBOX SCORE<\/a>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tWisconsin Rapids dropped the opener of the day-night doubleheader against Eau Claire<\/em>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tWisconsin Rapids, Wis. –<\/strong> The Rafters lost in the opening game of the day-night doubleheader against the Eau Claire Express in extra innings, 5-2. The Rafters, who had rallied from a 2-0 deficit in the seventh, nearly walked off in the bottom of the ninth, but the game-winning run was thrown out at home. The Express scored three runs in the 10th without recording a hit to win the game.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tBrian Bass took the loss for the Rafters, while Cameron Cotton picked up the win for the Express. Victor Sanchez came on for the save in the 10th. The loss drops the Rafters to 15-17, while the win moves the Express to 13-21.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tAfter a strong start by Jake Johansmeier (Eastern Illinois), the Rafters were down 2-0 heading to the bottom of the seventh. On the first pitch of the inning, Mitch McGeein (Eastern Michigan) cut the lead in half with a laser over the left field fence for his league-leading sixth home run of the summer. In the eighth, Brock Carpenter (Seattle) singled through the right side, scoring Zack Domingues (Long Beach State) to tie the game at 2-2.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Rafters won’t wait long for their next game, as they’ll play the second half of this doubleheader against the Express tonight at 7:05 p.m. Gates will open at 6:05 p.m. Rafters General Manager John Fanta has guaranteed a win in the game. If the Rafters lose the nightcap, all fans in attendance will receive a free ticket to the July 6th game. \n<\/p>\n
