\n\tThird baseman Tony Butler (Virginia) would add two insurance runs in the seventh, singling to score center fielder Alex Bacon (North Florida) and left fielder Tyler Allen (Virginia) to go up 6-3.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tCloser Tim Black came on in the eighth inning with one out and retired all five batters he faced to receive his tenth save of the year. Black is tied for the Northwoods League lead in saves after his performance tonight.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tMallards starter Tyler Buffett (Oklahoma State) tossed five innings, giving up three runs on seven hits while striking out three in the win to move to 1-0 on the year. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tNick Wernke (West Virginia) started for the Growlers and lasted 3.2 innings, letting up five walks, four runs and three hits while striking out two. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n
