River Bandits Shut Down Sky Carp

Beloit Sky Carp News Release
BELOIT, Wis. - Another fantastic Poopsie's Reading Program crowd at ABC Supply Stadium was witness to some fantastic pitching performances in the Sky Carp's 4-0 loss to Quad Cities Friday night.
The Sky Carp welcomed in students from seven different schools who completed the reading program, and also celebrated Teacher's Appreciation Day at the ballpark.
The Sky Carp couldn't get much offense generated, finishing with just four hits, but had some standout pitching performances.
Starting pitcher Karson Milbrandt was outstanding, allowing just three hits and one walk while striking out six in four scoreless innings.
Will Kempner was nearly immaculate in his two innings, surrendering just an infield single while striking out the other six hitters he faced.
The River Bandits plated three runs in the fifth inning against Jack Sellinger (2-1), and added an insurance run in the ninth. The offensive highlight for the Carp came from Micah McDowell, who picked up his first hit and first stolen base since being promoted from Jupiter.
The two teams will meet again Saturday at 6:35 in what should be a fantastic night at the ballpark, featuring a postgame Drone Show sure to dazzle what is expected to be another enormous crowd at the ballpark.
