Wausau Woodchucks
WAUSAU, WI (WSAU) – An early deficit of 6-1 was no worry for Wausau Wednesday night at Athletic Park, as they would score seven unanswered en route to an 8-7 win over Lakeshore.
Trailing 6-4 into the sixth, the Woodchucks would use a four-run inning to take the lead for the first time since the first when they led 1-0.
The last shot for the Chinooks was a run scored in the eighth – their first since a six-run second inning – but the runner left on third would in hindsight be what won Wausau the game.
Peyton Schofield allowed six early runs (two earned) but recovered in his six innings on the mound. He picked up Wednesday’s win, striking out two while allowing seven hits and two walks.
Tyler Mayfield picked up his second save, only facing four batters in the top of the ninth.
Dwight Allen had a three-hit game, picking up his third double of the season, driving in a run, and scoring a couple of runs.
The second to last game at Athletic Park this season and the finale against Lakeshore. The first pitch will be at 6:35 p.m. Thursday, Aug 10 and will be a tote bag giveaway, presented by Crystal Finishing Systems.
