Hodag baseball has five games on the schedule this week. Two of the five were at home, Monday against Medford and Tuesday against Wausau East.

Rhinelander lost both, 3-1 against Medford in a pitchers’ duel and 6-5 to Wausau East. In the East game the Hodags had the tying run at second with one out in the bottom of the 7th but a pop fly and base running error led to a double play and the end of the game.

The Hodags travel to Medford on Thursday and then to Rice Lake Saturday for a double header.
