Kiser would find himself in trouble during the third after loading the bases with two outs. <a href=\"https:\/\/northwoodsleague.com\/mankato-moondogs\/player\/?id=4297\">Ariel Armas<\/a> would come out to talk him down before Kiser would shut it down and walk out of the inning unscathed.<\/p>\n<p>Kiser would continue to power his way through the line up making it through the sixth inning recording nine strikeouts.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/northwoodsleague.com\/mankato-moondogs\/player\/?id=5127\">Caleb Strack<\/a> would come in during the seventh inning and went three up and three down to move the MoonDogs into a must score situation.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/northwoodsleague.com\/mankato-moondogs\/player\/?id=137\">Brody Harding<\/a> would start the inning with a walk followed by <a href=\"https:\/\/northwoodsleague.com\/mankato-moondogs\/player\/?id=2876\">Joe Hauser<\/a> walking as well. <a href=\"https:\/\/northwoodsleague.com\/mankato-moondogs\/player\/?id=6211\">Angelo Aleman<\/a> would put down a textbook bunt advancing the runners. The Hot Tots 3<sup>rd<\/sup> baseman would make a devastating throw over to 1<sup>st<\/sup> to get Aleman out missing the mark allowing Harding to score.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/northwoodsleague.com\/mankato-moondogs\/player\/?id=3577\">Dustin Crenshaw<\/a> would make his way to the plate and draw the third walk of the inning. <a href=\"https:\/\/northwoodsleague.com\/mankato-moondogs\/player\/?id=5868\">Kip Fougerousse<\/a> would make his impact on the game as he lasered one into the gap. Moving Crenshaw into scoring position and driving in two runs. <a href=\"https:\/\/northwoodsleague.com\/mankato-moondogs\/player\/?id=5125\">Brenden Hord<\/a> would look to break the inning open with a deep shot that would push Crenshaw in for a four-run inning.<\/p>\n<p>Strack would continue to pitch for the MoonDogs as they would attempt to cruise to a win. Strack would catch himself in a tough position facing the tying batter in the top of the ninth. The MoonDogs would hold on and secure the win 4-1 in a series they need to win.
