WILSON, N.C. – Led by Anton Lazits’ bases-clearing triple and Jack Rothenhausler’s two-run home run, the Wilson Tobs (4-2) dispatched of the Wilmington Sharks (4-5) with ease in a 10-1 victory on Thursday night at Historic Fleming Stadium.
Wilson got a superb start out of left-hander JD McCracken in the nine-run win, with the Rice product tossing four and two-thirds of one-run ball to set the tone in his summer 2023 debut. The trio of Ryan Corbett, Alex Bouchard and Reese Miller all then combined for four and one-third scoreless out of relief, holding Wilmington to just two hits the rest of the way.
At the dish, all three of Rothenhausler (2-for-4), Scott Mackiewicz (2-for-3) and the newly-arrived Garrett Anglim (2-for-3) all recorded multi-hit contests for the Tobs on Thursday night. The three played a vital role in a three-run fourth, five-run fifth and two-run sixth to help shut the door against the Sharks.
Wilson now turns its attention to Finch Field in Thomasville, N.C. to take on the High Point-Thomasville HiToms on Friday evening for the first time this season. First pitch is scheduled for 7:00 p.m. ET.
