FRISCO, Texas (April 29, 2025)—The Wichita Wind Surge started their two-week road trip on the right foot with a 5-4 win over the Frisco RoughRiders at Riders Field. In the early afternoon series opener, Wichita halted a late rally by the RoughRiders and stranded the tying run on base to end the game with a victory.
Christian MacLeod allowed just two baserunners across the opening three innings in his second start of the season with the Wind Surge.
Ricardo Olivar began the top of the fourth by yanking a double down the left field line. After Olivar advanced to third on an infield putout, Kala’i Rosario pulled one far enough into left for a sacrifice fly and a 1-0 Wichita lead through three and a half.

Frisco nearly responded in the bottom of the fourth, but Angel Macuare threw out Josh Hatcher at home trying to score on a Cam Cauley single to shallow left center. Alejandro Osuna later tied the game for the RoughRiders on an RBI triple that stayed fair down the right field line in the bottom of the fifth.
The Wind Surge brought in four runs on four hits in the seventh and eighth innings, spearheaded by Olivar’s go-ahead two-run single before the stretch.
Down to their final out in the bottom of the ninth, Keyber Rodriguez singled to right and two runners crossed the plate to make the score 5-4 Wichita, then Cody Laweryson struck out Frainyer Chavez to end the game by that score.
