ASHWAUBENON, Wis. - The Green Bay Booyah are slated to play in a second doubleheader in as many days. They will be hosting the Wisconsin Rapids Rafters in a day/night doubleheader.

The Booyah come into the game sliding in the standings. After a pair of losses last night, the Booyah have now lost six straight games. After beginning the season with five straight losses, the Booyah rattled off eight wins in 11 games, but are now on this slide.

Last night, the Booyah plated two in the eighth inning courtesy of Kaden Hollow (Dixie State) and Tristin Garcia (Western Kentucky) but the deficit was too much as they fell in the first game, 5-2 to the Woodchucks. The second game was tough for the Booyah as well as they were able to tie the ballgame at four in the fourth inning. But the Woodchucks answered right back with five runs in the bottom of the fourth to break things wide open. The Booyah fell in the nightcap, 10-5.

Moving to today's doubleheader, the Booyah and Rafters will play a game at 12:05 pm and at 6:35 pm at Capital Credit Union Park. The Booyah dropped the two meetings between the teams back in the first week of the season.

The Rafters will hand the ball to Wyatt Thompson for game one. He will be making first appearance of the season this afternoon.

In the second game, Tanner Lane (Pittsburg State) will start for the Booyah. He is 1-0 on the campaign, pitching 8.1 innings, allowing just four hits, two walks and punching out 14. He has not allowed a run this season. This will be his third appearance.

The Rafters will turn to Matt Osterberg for game two. He is 1-0 on the season, pitching 16 innings, allowing nine hits, two runs, five walks while striking out 22, which is good enough for second in the division. He will be making his fourth appearance of the season.
