Yesterday, the Rafters fell just one run short in a ninth-inning rally. Trailing 4-0 entering the frame, Steven Rivas (Long Beach State) worked a leadoff walk. Jack-Thomas Wold (UNLV) delivered a base hit to make it runners at the corners with no one out. Mike Rojas (Auburn) brought the big hit with a two-run double. Down to their final out, Wisconsin Rapids went to a pinch hitter in Ty Duvall (Vanderbilt) who collected a base hit that scored Rojas. The Chinooks were able to get out of the ninth with a 4-3 win following a ground out to second.<\/p>\n<p>Tonight, the Rafters aim for their second series split against the Chinooks and secure a winning road trip.
