The Dock Spiders now hold a record of 25-40 for the season and 12-20 in the second half.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The Mallards started the scoring in the fourth inning with a two-out single to right field by Dawson Hokuf (Cincinnati), bringing in Frankie Carney (Cincinnati) to make the score 1-0.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The Dock Spiders tied the game in the fifth inning. A double by Preston Knott (Northwestern) was followed by a triple to center field by Adam Cootway (UW-Whitewater), evening the score at one.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The score remained tied until the eighth inning. Caleb Granger (Florida A&amp;M) delivered five strong innings, allowing only three hits, one earned run, and striking out three.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In the eighth inning, with a runner at third base and two outs, a single to left field by Korbyn Dickerson (Louisville) brought home Charlie Marion (Madison), giving Madison a 2-1 lead.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Madison extended their lead in the ninth inning. With runners at first and second base and one out, a hard ground ball from Liam Moreno (St. Cloud State) to third base brought home Dawson Hokuf (Cincinnati) from second base after third baseman Miles Vandenheuvel (Eastern Arizona) made an error, making the score 3-1.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In the bottom of the eighth inning, the Dock Spiders loaded the bases with one out. A strikeout of Adam Cootway brought Drew Barragan (Embry-Riddle) to bat with the Dock Spiders down to their final out. Barragan singled into left field, scoring Colton Angell (Southeastern CC) from third base to make the score 3-2. However, the runner at second base, Travis Strickler (Embry-Riddle), was out trying to get back to third base (7-5) to end the game, securing the Madison victory and clinching their playoff spot with a 3-2 win.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The Dock Spiders close their road schedule on Wednesday at Wisconsin Rapids, with the first pitch against the Rafters at 6:35 p.m.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The Fond du Lac Dock Spiders are a member of the finest developmental league for elite college baseball players, the Northwoods League.
