Jonah Weathers (University of Louisville) drove in a run with a double, Marcelino Alonso (Indiana State University) followed with an RBI single, and two more runs scored on a Rafter error. Aaron Holland (UW-Whitewater) punctuated the inning with a two-run home run to give the Mallards a 7-0 lead.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Holland added his second homer of the night in the fifth inning, and run-scoring hits from Dom Jacoby (University of Louisville) and Aiden Arnett (Virginia Tech) stretched the advantage to 10-0.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The Mallards put the game further out of reach in the eighth. John Hadley IV (Creighton University) opened the inning with a solo home run before Weathers launched a grand slam to make it 15-0. Hadley later came back to the plate in the same frame and ripped a two-run double, pushing the lead to 17-0.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Madison tacked on three more runs in the ninth to reach the 20-run mark. Weathers capped a four-hit performance with an RBI single, finishing the night with six runs batted in. Wisconsin Rapids scored a run to break the shutout in the bottom of the inning, but the Mallards cruised to the 20-1 victory.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Trey Lawrence (University of Missouri) pitched five shutout innings on the mound to earn his first win of the season for the Mallards. Sam Neal (Young Harris College) was charged with the loss for Wisconsin Rapids.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">With the win, Madison remained tied with Wausau atop the Great Lakes West Division standings.
