August 4, 2021 - Midwest League (MWL)
Beloit Sky Carp News Release
BELOIT, WI - Another beautiful night for baseball. The Snappers welcomed an enthusiastic crowd through the gates of ABC Supply Stadium Wednesday night for another fun-filled evening.
The Melody Makers kicked off the night with the National Anthem, and Downtown Dave riled up the crowd with one of the best "play ball" chants of the season. The crowd stayed energetic and excited all game long. How can you not be excited about this beautiful downtown stadium?!
During the second inning of Wednesday's contest, The Beloit Snappers recognized two employees - Fran and Sadie - for their excellent customer service. The Snappers are dedicated to making every night special for YOU the fans.
Highlights of the night included Pensacola's own Donna Kirby's attempt to pronounce different cities in Wisconsin. To her credit, Oconomowoc has 10 letters and half of them are O's. Fans joined in on the fun with the fifth inning dance cam and flex cam. Finally, Downtown Dave's rendition of the 7th inning stretch is a must-see attraction only found at ABC Supply Stadium.
The Beloit Snappers used a trio of homers and a two-hit pitching performance to notch a 5-0 win over the Wisconsin Timber Rattlers. The first win was at ABC Supply Stadium. Troy Johnston hit a pair of homers, his first multi-homer game with Beloit. His first home run was the first home run hit at ABC Supply Stadium high off the batters eye in centerfield. Kole Enright hit his second homer of the 2021 season and first with the Snappers. Antonio Velez threw seven scoreless innings with just one hit to earn his fourth win of the year.
The Snappers are back home again on Thursday before for Thirsty Thursday (2-for-1 Busch Lights) against the Wisconsin Timber Rattlers. For more information on tickets or group outings, call our front office at 608.362.2272 or visit SnappersBaseball.com.
