Express Drop Game to the Bucks

July 9, 2023 - Northwoods League (Northwoods)
Eau Claire Express News Release


Waterloo IA - The Express stopped off in Iowa to begin their series vs. the Waterloo Bucks, but had a tough beat to start the trip, losing 6-9.

The Express started Trey Felker (Montevallo) on the mound. Although tallying 3 strikeouts, he struggled to record outs, as he gave up 6 runs through 4 innings. The Bucks' bats were hot though as they scored at least 1 run in 5 consecutive innings. Their biggest inning came in the bottom of the 5th when they put up an impressive 5 runs on 5 hits.

Eau Claire made a late push, scoring 3 runs in the top of the 7th inning to put them back in contention. The 8th inning also started off promising, when Temo Becerra smacked a leadoff Home Run to kick things off. Unfortunately for the Men in Orange, they could not capitalize on this momentum and failed to score more than 1 run the rest of the game.

This loss halts the Trains' winning streak which started off at 4 in a row in the second half. They will look to get back into the W column in their next Sunday afternoon contest vs. the Bucks. First pitch will come at 2:35 pm CT, and the game will again be played in Waterloo. Tune into the action on 106.7 FM-Moose Country, or watch the game live on the Northwoods League Website.
