The Evansville Otters' hopes of winning the Frontier League's East Division were shot down Tuesday night after losing both games of a double-header against the Washington Wild Things to open the final series of the regular season.

A second straight loss to the Schaumburg Boomers drop the Otters to third place in the Frontier League's East Division behind Southern Illinois and Washington.

All-Star third baseman, Shayne Houck breaks former Otter, Jeff Goldbach record of 19 home runs during the 2005 season with his 20th in Tuesday's 12-5 loss against the Schaumburg Boomers.

The Rascals came out swinging in game two of a three game series against the Otters Thursday night in O'Fallon, Missouri.

In what is starting to become the standard since the All-Star break, the Evansville Otters bats lit up the scoreboard in game one of their three game series on the road against the West Division-leading River City Rascals.

After falling to Washington in game one of Monday night's double-header, 2-0, the Otters rally back for a game two win and find themselves sitting atop the East Division along side the Wild Things.
