The Rangers looked to rebound from the previous weekend's DH loss by entertaining the Wright Knights for a twinbill at Carlisle HS.  The Rangers won both contests 10-6 and 9-3.

​

In game 1, the Rangers jumped out quickly in the top of the 1st. Ben Schooler had an RBI double, and then Markus Neff followed with a 2-run home run. After a walk to Cal Walters and a wild pitch and throwing error, Jonmarc Lippincott had an RBI single to make it 4-0.

​

Brandon Saylor started on the mound and got into trouble quickly allowing 5 runs to score in the bottom of the first. But he settled down, striking out 3 in the next two innings. Meanwhile, the Rangers added a run in the second to tie the game on Neff's RBI single.

​

The score remained 5-5 through 4 innings. In the top of the 5th, Neff, Walters, and Chris Ridl singled in succession. Dominic Kuzujanakis hit a sac fly to make it 6-5. Ridl stole second allowing Walters to steal home and make it 7-5. Cooper Nolte then doubled home Ridl for a 3-run lead.  The Knights would add a run in the bottom of the inning to make it 8-6.

​

Neff and Walters hit back-to-back home runs in the top of the 7th for some added insurance runs.

​

Joe Becker, who relieved Saylor, tossed 3 innings for the win. Eric Becker made his 2020 pitching debut with a hitless, scoreless 7 inning.

​

In game 2, Hunter Kraynak made his first Rangers start on the mound. Despite allowing a run to score on a wild pitch in the top of the first inning, Kraynak would not allow another run through his 4 innings of work in picking up his first win of the season.

​

The Rangers scored all of their runs in the 2nd and 3rd innings. In the 2nd, Chris Jones had a 2-run triple and Eric Becker had an RBI single in a 4-run frame. In the 3rd, Cal Walters had an RBI double. Nolte drove in a run on a groundout. Ridl had a 2-run double. And Jones added an RBI single.
