While Rio might've come up empty on Tuesday, Parker Braatz wasn't going down without a fight. Braatz pitched three innings while giving up just one earned (and one unearned) run off three hits, which was good enough to also set a new career-low in walks.
Even though Braatz couldn't lead Rio over Markesan, he won't have to wait long to try again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 5:00 p.m. on Thursday. Despite Braatz's best efforts to the contrary, the Vikings will head into their next match having dropped 19 straight games dating back to last season. Will Thursday be the turning point? Check MaxPreps after the action for a full breakdown of the game and more baseball content.
