Kenosha comes into this game suffering two losses from the defending Northwoods League Champions the Wisconsin Rapids Rafters. The Kingfish fell to the Rafters yesterday after Wisconsin Rapids sent a 2-run walk off homerun over the wall with two outs on the board in the bottom of the tenth.
On the mound for the Bullfrogs tonight will be right handed pitcher Alex Stodola (UW Stevens Point). He comes off his collegiate season supporting a 4.74 ERA and 23 strikeouts this past season
