Battle Jacks Beat Woodchucks 5-2

WAUSAU, Wis. – Game one of Tuesday’s doubleheader at Athletic Park did not go Wausau’s way, as Battle Creek was able to take the win 5-2.

Getting ahead right away in the first with a home run, Battle Creek (9-7/19-31) set the tone of the game and would never trail.

They would go up 5-0 before Wausau (7-7/27-22) would score their first runs of the game from Mike Maginnis’ (Georgia State) third home run of the season – a two-run shot to left field.

Only four hits and those two runs did not cut it in game one though.

Key Moments:

Dominick Reid (Oklahoma State) had his best outing of the season, going 4.1 innings and striking out seven batters while only allowing three hits.
