Washington Wild Things News Release


WASHINGTON, Pa. - Schaumburg scored a late run in the ninth inning to take the series opener at Wild Things Park, 3-2, as the teams opened the final regular-season series of 2024.

Washington jumped out to an early lead. Andrew Czech hit a book-rule double to right center to start the scoring in the first inning plating Tyreque Reed, who had walked. In the second, Brandon McIlwain launched a solo shot to left to make it 2-0.

Dariel Fregio was great in his start through six and in all went seven innings for his 10th quality start in his last 11 outings. He allowed a two-run homer to Anthony Calarco in the seventh inning that tied the game and forced Fregio to a no decision. He fanned six and walked one while he surrendered just four hits.

A wild pitch by Alex Carrillo scored an unearned run against Ryan Munoz's line in the ninth, giving Schaumburg a 3-2 lead. Washington saw its three hitters punch out in the ninth to fall in the game by a run.

Schaumburg pulled its magic number for a playoff spot to two with the win with two to go.

The Frontier League yearly awards will be announced tomorrow at 4 p.m. ET prior to the middle game of the series with the Boomers which is scheduled for 7:05 p.m.
