Beloit Sky Carp News Release


BELOIT - A jam-packed crowd of 3,150 filled the stands for First Responders Night at ABC Supply Stadium Wednesday night.

Although the Sky Carp fell short in a 2-0 defeat, the massive throng left the ballpark with a collective smile on their faces after a monster fireworks display lit up the skies above the ballpark.

The Sky Carp could manage just three hits and finished the game 0-for-4 with runners in scoring position.

The Timber Rattlers scored the first run in the third inning on a solo home run by Yader Areinamo, then plated the second tally in the fifth on an RBI groundout by Eduardo Garcia.

The Sky Carp pitching staff was outstanding all evening. Noble Meyer (0-2) got the start and allowed a pair of runs in 4 1-3 innings.

Kyle Crigger, Evan Taylor and Josh Ekness combined for 3 2 2-3 scoreless innings out of the bullpen to close things out.

The Sky Carp will travel to Grand Chute to take on the Timber Rattlers for the final three games of the series beginning Thursday night. Karson Milbrandt will take the mound for the Carp.
