Rochester, Minn (July 9th, 2013)–The Mankato MoonDogs got a huge night from their lead off hitter on Tuesday. This effort helped pace their offense towards an eleven run outburst.

Timothy Arakawa (Oklahoma State) was very impressive out of the top spot in the order on Tuesday for Mankato. He collected five hits in six at bats and scored twice. He also drove in five RBI while his teammates behind him mashed five home runs.

The MoonDogs will travel to Alexandria for a 7:05 game on Wednesday night.
