Wisconsin Rapids, Wis. - Playing their first back-to-back home games of the season, the Wisconsin Rapids Rafters (3-5) open a two-game set at Historic Witter Field Wednesday against the Lakeshore Chinooks (1-7).

The Rafters are coming off a 5-3 comeback victory on the road over the Wisconsin Woodchucks. The Wisconsin Rapids offense put up eight hits on the night, with Jake Dunham's 2-for-4 and three RBI performance leading the way.
