Bryce Crabb (Northwestern – St. Paul) got the start on the mound tonight for Mankato throwing 4 ⅓ innings allowing 7 runs in.
Bismarck scored in 6 of the 9 innings they batted in tonight capitalizing off the lack of available arms Mankato had.

A couple position players got a chance on the mound tonight for your MoonDogs as Casey Sorg (Bellarmine) and Matthew Fleischhacker (MSU – Mankato) finished out the game.
