Wild Things Edge Evansville

WASHINGTON, Pa. — Evansville had the tying run at the plate when the rain and storms came to Wild Things Park during the sixth inning of Wednesday’s game, however, after a 46 minute delay, the game was called as the Wild Things earned a 4-2 win over Evansville.

The Wild Things started the scoring with a four spot in the bottom of the third inning, getting runs on a groundout by Ryan Cox, a two-run homer by Blake Adams and a run-scoring double by Hector Roa.

Evansville responded with two runs on a Ryan Long two-run home run in the sixth before the game was called with a 1-0 count to Rob Calabrese and a runner, Dakota Phillips on second.

Michael Austin gets the win after 5.2 innings of two-run ball, while Tyler Vail, who allowed four runs (two earned), took the loss for the Otters.

Left hander Austin Nicely (0-4, 12.50 ERA) will start the rubber game for Evansville today, while the reigning Frontier League Pitcher of the Week, lefty John Havird, goes for Washington. Havird brings a 3-2 record and 3.20 ERA to the start. First pitch is scheduled for 7:05 p.m. at Wild Things Park.
