\n\tRafters Travel to Kalamazoo to Continue Michigan Trip<\/u><\/strong>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tWisconsin Rapids seeks fifth straight win<\/em>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tWisconsin Rapids, Wis. –  In game three of a four game Michigan road trip, Wisconsin Rapids (21-4) heads to Kalamazoo (7-18) to take on the Growlers on Sunday afternoon at Homer Stryker Field.  \n<\/p>\n

\n\tStarting off the road trip with a sweep of Battle Creek, the Rafters capped off the series with an 8-1 victory over the Bombers. Jack Eagan, who is the league leader in wins with five, went six innings of one-run baseball with seven strikeouts.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tOffensively, the Rafters put one run on the board in the first inning to give Eagan a lead to work with. Bryson Stott walked and came around to score on a wild pitch to put the Rafters on top early.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tIn the bottom of the second inning the Rafters put up six runs, aided by three walks and four hits. Stott, Josh Rehwaldt, Scott Kapers and Ryan Stekl each drove in a run, to put the Rafters up 5-0 before Jake Guenther laced a two-RBI double to finish the inning and pull the Rafters ahead 7-0 after two.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tThe lone run the Bombers could muster off Eagan came in the fourth. Alex Howard led off with a single, coming around to score later in the frame on a JD Mundy base knock. The Rafters added one more in the eighth for insurance to win 8-1 from C.O Brown Stadium.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tOn Sunday, the Rafters play game five of the season series against Kalamazoo. The Rafters have won all four games this season against the Growlers, including two on the road. The last time these two teams played Rafters starter J.P. Stevenson tossed eight scoreless innings and the offense blasted three home-runs in the 7-0 win.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tQuinn DiPasquale gets the ball for the Rafters on Sunday. The right-hander is 2-1 with a 2.77 ERA in four starts this year. The Stevens Institute of Technology junior tossed five innings in his last start against the Wisconsin Woodchucks. His longest start of the year came against the Woodchucks, lasting seven and two-thirds and giving up one earned run.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tFirst pitch from Kalamazoo is slated for 2:05 pm CT. Coverage of the game can be found on WFHR 1320 AM or WFHR.com, the Rafters Radio Network. Pregame coverage begins at 1:50 pm CT.  \n<\/p>\n
