Lake Country DockHounds News Release
OCONOMOWOC, WI. - The Chicago Dogs defeated the Lake Country DockHounds 10-5 on Wednesday evening at Wisconsin Brewing Company Park.
Chicago's catcher, Ryan Lidge, popped off the stat sheet as the main contributor in Wednesday's contest. He would conclude his day with four hits and six runs batted in.
Lidge opened the first inning with a nine-pitch at-bat, resulting in a two-run homer. It would drive in Michael Crouse for the Dogs.
In the top of the second inning, Lake Country pitcher Greg Loukinen would exit after the trainer met with him on the mound. Details of what happened are unknown at this time. He pitched just one and two-thirds innings before Manny Blanco replaced him.
In the next half inning, the DockHounds got in the hit column when Jake Snider lined the baseball into shallow left field. Gabriel Noriega wasted no time at the plate, smacking his own two-run home run over the batter's eye. The score was then tied at two apiece.
Ryan Lidge kept chugging for Chicago as he advanced on a two-run double in the third. The catcher would tack on another run-producing double in the fifth to give him five RBIs halfway through the contest.
Daikan Yoh protected the plate on a 2-2 count with a round-tripper for his fifth home run in 2022. The score was then 5-3, Chicago leading.
The sixth frame brought home four runs for Chicago, but Lake Country needed to rally. Gio Brusa drove in TJ Bennett from third base with a ground out. With the bases loaded later in the inning, Tristen Carranza was hit by a pitch, driving in another for Lake Country.
The Dogs would score the last run of the ball game in the eighth frame. The final score was 10-5 in favor of Chicago.
Kyle Murphy earned his sixth win on the campaign, while Manny Blanco took the loss in relief.
The DockHounds will wrap up the series on Thursday, August 4th against the Chicago Dogs. The first pitch is scheduled for 6:35 p.m. Broadcaster Sam Matheny will be on the call, live from Wisconsin Brewing Company Park.
