FRANKLIN, Wis. — Fargo-Moorhead fell even further from the top of the American Association's North Division after a 7-2 loss to Milwaukee on Sunday at Franklin Field.
The RedHawks have lost four straight, three against the division-leading Milkmen over the weekend. Milwaukee (24-13) has won four straight and leads Chicago (22-16) by 2-1/2 games and is four ahead of the RedHawks (20-17).
Fargo-Moorhead will look to snap the streak against Winnipeg, which is in Fargo for a three-game set beginning at 7:02 p.m. Monday, June 28, at Newman Outdoor Field.
The RedHawks appeared ready to break out early last week, winning twice against Chicago by a combined score of 28-5. In the four losses since then, F-M has scored 6.5 runs per game while giving up 9.5 per game.
On Sunday, two Fargo-Moorhead errors led to three unearned runs and three RedHawks pitchers walked five. John Silviano was 2-for-4 with an RBI, Jordan George was 2-for-4 with a double, Manny Boscan had two hits and Sam Dexter drove in a run.
