They only tallied a total of six hits in two games in Rockford against the Rivets. It was the complete opposite effect in Traverse City.

The Pit Spitters started the night off in the bottom of the first inning as right fielder Parker Brosius (Georgia Tech) ripped a single into right field. A couple of pitches later, Brosius later came around to score on a passed ball that gave the Pit Spitters a 1-0 lead. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in;text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-size: 9.0pt;font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in;text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-size: 9.0pt;font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif\">The Dock Spiders countered the 1-0 punch with three runs in the bottom of the second. A single from Paul Smith (Rice) and then a double from Jared Heinzen (Wisconsin-Parkside) set the offense up in prime position to score. Catcher Brady Katterhagen launched a sac fly to the right fielder that brought Smith across the plate to score the first run for the Dock Spiders.
