With the MoonDogs clinging to a one-run lead in the ninth inning, head coach Jason Nell decided to make the bullpen session a save opportunity.<\/p>\n<p>Salas, who threw a complete game in a loss to Madison on Saturday, pitched the ninth inning Tuesday and earned the save in the MoonDogs&#8217; 5-4 win over the La Crosse Loggers. Salas, who pitched for La Crosse last season, got the Northwoods League&#8217;s home run leader Ben Barrone to fly out to center with the tying run on third for the final out, as Mankato completed a two-game sweep of the Loggers.<\/p>\n<p>The MoonDogs&#8217; defense faltered early, putting them in a two-run hole. The first two Loggers batters of the third inning reached base via errors, but John Lowe (1-1) induced a key double play off the bat of Jesse Hart to minimize the damage. Lowe finished by scattering seven hits in 6.1 innings, allowing four runs, two of which were unearned.<\/p>\n<p>In the fifth, it was the Loggers who got sloppy on defense, opening the door to a big inning for the MoonDogs. Ryan Manthei reached on an error to lead off the inning, Adam Kampsen got on base on a fielder&#8217;s choice, and Ben Geelan was hit by a pitch to load the bases. Chirs Rodriguez hit a sacrifice fly to score Manthie, and one out later, Bobby Verbick hit his first home run of the season to give the MoonDogs a 4-2 lead.<\/p>\n<p>The MoonDogs again loaded the bases with one out in the sixth, and Sean Halton delivered a run-scoring single to score Nate Hanson and put Mankato ahead by three.<\/p>\n<p>With the &#8216;Dogs leading 5-4 in the eighth, Mankato reliever Dan Klous got into trouble by issuing consecutive walks. Matt Mossey was brought into the game, and after surrendering a single, he struck out Adam Fleener and got Mark Ortega to ground out to escape the bases loaded jam.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(6\/6\/06) Steve Salas was scheduled to throw a bullpen session on Tuesday.
