The Chucks and Mallards played two seven inning games today at Athletic Park with the Chucks taking game one 3-0 and the Mallards taking game two 6-2. The Chucks won't play the Mallards again until August 3.
The Chucks got a great start from Grant Siegel (UCF) in game one, as he improves to 4-1 on the season. He threw seven innings and did not allow a hit and kept Madison scoreless. It was the first shutout and first no-hitter for the Chucks this season.
In game one, Jake Berkland (U of M Mankato) scored two runs and Vance Sheahan (U of South Carolina Upstate) scored one. Max Galvin (U of Miami) and Colin Bruggemann (Ok St.) both had RBIs, as the Chucks cruised to a victory.
In game two, Madison came out hot with three runs in the 1st. They forced starter Jonathon Amonica (Keiser U) to throw 35 pitches as he would not return for the 2nd. They found three more runs in the 4th off Ben Lee (UW Whitewater) as they found three hits and sent all nine batters to the plate.
The Chucks did score two runs in game two, both coming in the second inning. Sam Fischer (FIU) led off with a walk and came around to score. Hayden Christiansen (Xavier) reached on a fielder's choice and scored on an RBI single from Christian Smith-Johnson (Texas A&M Corpus Christi).
The Chucks wouldn't score again, and they fell to 38-11 and 12-3 in the second half. They are 4-2 against the Mallards, with just one series left with their division rivals.
