\n\tWisconsin Rapids sits .5 games behind Lakeshore in the season standings for fifth place in the South Division<\/em>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tWisconsin Rapids, Wisconsin –<\/strong> The Rafters will have to go 6-6 over their last 12 games to record 32 wins this season, the most since the team’s inception in 2010. The road to that mark begins with tonight when Wisconsin Rapids hosts the Lakeshore Chinooks at Witter Field. The Chinooks are 1.5 games behind the Rafters in the second half of the season, but sit .5 games ahead of Wisconsin Rapids overall. The two teams have split their season series so far this year at 3-3, as each team picked up a home two-game sweep, along with a split in Mequon, Wisconsin on July 15-16.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tYesterday, the Rafters dropped both games of a doubleheader to the Eau Claire Express. In game one, Wisconsin Rapids fell fell 14-3. The Rafters took a 2-0 lead in the top of the 2nd inning and looked to be in control after four innings, leading by a score of 2-1. The Express proceeded to score thirteen of the final fourteen runs of the ball game. In the second game of the twin-billing, the Rafters again had control of the game late, leading 5-1 heading to the home half of the eighth. But Eau Claire came through with three runs in the eighth and rallied for a pair in the ninth for the walk-off win.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tWisconsin Rapids will send arguably its most consistent pitcher to the mound tonight in Jay Peters. The UW-Milwaukee commit is 3-1 on the summer with a sparkling 2.04 ERA over 22 innings. The Randolph, Wisconsin native has 26 strike outs and just four walks in his four starts and has picked up the win in his last three outings.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tTonight is Renaissance Learning Night at the ballpark. Gates open at 6:05 p.m. with first pitch coming at 7:05.\n<\/p>\n
