St. Cloud Rox News Release
Willmar, MN--- Playing in Willmar for the final time this season, the Rox came up on the wrong end of a 3-0 game as they lost their 3rd game at Bill Taunton Stadium this season.
With Dominick Carlini (SE Louisiana) on the mound, the Rox weren't able to muster up any offense to help their lefty. Carlini pitched well on the mound, going 6 strong innings allowing 11 hits, 2 runs while striking out 8.
Marcus Carson (Kentucky) was a bright spot for the Rox, as he had two of the teams three hits in the loss.
John Sansone (Florida St.) continued his tear at the plate, ripping a 1-out double deep to center in the top of the 9th inning, but the Rox were unable to bring him across after he reached third on an error by the Willmar second basemen.
