Beloit Sky Carp News Release


BELOIT -Friday night was just about perfect for the Sky Carp.

A packed house of 2,291 was into the game from the first pitch, decked out in their Sky Carp Hawaiian shirts.

The pitching staff came through with its usual strong performance, and the offense scored three times in the last two innings to help the Sky Carp to a 4-3 win over the Lugnuts to kick off the second half of the season.

The victory, which was the team's sixth in a row, was capped by Jake DeLeo's one-out single that plated Jorge Caballero in the ninth inning.

The Sky Carp trailed 3-1 in the bottom of the eighth inning when Johnny Olmstead cracked a two-run homer to knot the score and set up the dramatic finish.

Karson Milbrandt got the start and allowed just one run in five innings. Josh White (1-0) picked up the victory by throwing two scoreless frames.
