Wausau Woodchucks News Release
Jared Burch (Houston Baptist University) started his first game on the mound for Wausau and came out firing with the first 3 batters he faced striking out and 5 of the first 9 going as of the strikeout as well.
The Chucks get the bats rolling after Tim Conway (University of North Georgia) gets in scoring position and Hamilton Anderson (State Fair CC) drove in the first run of the day, but the scoring wasn't done as Daniel Helfgott (Lackawanna College) crosses home plate to go up on the Chinooks 2-0.
Burch had everything going for him tonight (8K, 1H, 6I) with his stellar start he let the Woodchuck batters relax and in the 5th Dean Bittner (Mesa CC) drove in a run on a pop fly to give the chucks 1 more run.
Conway started the Woodchucks off in the 6 with a double to put two into scoring position, an Anderson single brought in two more and got the Chucks out to a 5-0 lead.
Mike Reagan (Barry University) picked up right where Burch left off recording (5K, 2H, 3I) to close out the game.
