WILLMAR, MN - The St. Cloud Rox (43-20) brought down the Willmar Stingers (35-30) 15-11 on Sunday after an incredible offensive display featuring 15 hits and three home runs.
Carter Jorissen (Cal State Bakersfield) found his first home run of the season in the top of the second inning to score two runs for the Rox. Not long after, Noah Gordon (North Dakota State University) drove in a run to tie up the game at 3-3.
St. Cloud took a 4-3 lead in the top of the third inning after an RBI single by Jorissen.
The fifth inning proved to be a pivotal one, and the Rox offense showed up in a big way, as St. Cloud scored five runs to tie the ballgame back up at 9-9. Augusto Mungarrieta (University of Kansas) drove in a run to start the rally, and St. Cloud began to have a constant presence on the bases. Gordon brought in two more runs before Levi Lampert (SW Minnesota State University) sent run number nine home to even up the game.
After a weather delay, the game eventually resumed. In the eighth inning, power hitting lifted the Rox back in front. Mungarrieta scorched the baseball for a three-run home run to retake the lead before Jackson Cooke (University of Pittsburgh) added a two-run long ball of his own to give the Rox a 15-11 advantage.
The score would be final at 15-11 as the Rox were victorious and split the series.
