However, the Kingfish were quick to strikeback with six hits and five runs in the top of the third. The Dock Spiders followed this up by holding the Kingfish scoreless for the next three frames and then outscoring Kenosha 5-2 to close out the 8-7 win at home.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The headliner for the Dock Spiders was Patrick Graham who notched his first and second home run of the season. These homers were the first home runs by a Dock Spider at Herr-Baker Field this season and it was also the first multiple home run performance by a Dock Spider in a single game in 2025. Graham went on to finish the day 3-for-4 with two runs, two homers and four RBI.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Offensively the Dock Spiders had another successful day at the plate notching nine hits as a team. Patrick Graham and James Hankerson Jr. were the only Dock Spiders to find the hit column multiple times as Hankerson Jr. went 2-for-4 with two runs in his first multiple hit performance this summer.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">On the mound the Dock Spiders had an overall successful day despite a rough patch in the third inning, starter Ethan Cole went seven innings\u2013 tying his season high in innings pitched\u2013 giving up seven hits, six runs to six strikeouts. Six of the seven hits and five of the six runs came in the top of the third as Dock Spiders pitching coach Sam Fonder called this outing from Cole, \u201chis favorite of the year.\u201d This was due to Cole\u2019s ability to bounce back after a rough turn of events in the third. The Dock Spiders would use three arms in the win and combine for nine strikeouts.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Next home game for the Dock Spiders is a double-header on Wednesday at 11:35 a.m. and 6:35 p.m. against the Traverse City Pit Spitters. The game falls on a Drink Wisconsinbly Wednesday with Sunny 97.7 where fans can enjoy half-priced Drink Wisconsinbly Old Fashioneds.
