Kane County Cougars News Release
DAVENPORT, Iowa - A night after scoring one run and stranding 14 runners on base in a loss, the Kane County Cougars pounded the Quad Cities River Bandits, 8-2, on Tuesday night at Modern Woodmen Park to even the three-game series. The Cougars poked 14 hits, and each player had at least one. All-star Ian Krol gave up one run over five innings for his third straight win.
The Cougars jumped on Scott Schneider for three runs in the first inning. Rashun Dixon smoked a two-out two-run double, and Kent Walton followed with an RBI single. After the Bandits got one in the second, Max Stassi scored Tyreace House in the fifth to make it 4-1. Then Stassi crushed a three-run triple in the seventh, and Dixon delivered another run-scoring double for an 8-1 game. Conner Crumbliss, House and Anthony Aliotti all scored two runs at the top of the order.
Krol (5-2) yielded the one run on three hits, walked none and fanned four in the victory. He has walked only one batter over his last 30 2/3 innings. Connor Hoehn fanned three over two scoreless relief innings, and Bo Schultz got touched for an eighth-inning run to account for the 8-2 final.
The Cougars (31-35) and River Bandits (39-26) conclude the series Thursday night at 7 CT, as the Cougars try to win their fifth set in a row. Rob Gilliam (3-5, 4.34) will face Shelby Miller (1-3, 5.12). The game will be broadcast on WBIG 1280-AM and online at www.kccougars.com with pregame coverage starting at 6:45 p.m.
