Traverse City would later respond by scoring five runs in the eighth inning making it a 6-3 game. The Dock Spiders would answer again in the sixth and seventh innings scoring three runs highlighted by a Tyler Stack triple. Unfortunately, the Pit Spitters would tack on three runs in the bottom of the eighth and were able to takedown the Dock Spiders 11-6.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Offensively the Dock Spiders hit an impressive milestone in tonight\u2019s game as Fond du Lac knocked three triples as a part of their seven hit total on the night. This is the first time this season the Dock Spiders have notched multiple triples in a game this season.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Leading the way in the batter\u2019s box for the Dock Spiders was Jaron Cotton who went 1-for-4 with a team leading three RBI along with a stolen base.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">On the mound the Dock Spiders used six arms and struggled at limited contact and walking Pit Spitters as they gave up 12 hits and 10 walks to Traverse City. The Dock Spiders also only struck out four batters with relief pitcher Karter Beving striking out two in two innings of work.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The Dock Spiders look to curb a three game skid as they head to Kalamazoo to start off a two game road series against the Growlers.
