In fact when Demmin left the game with one out in the seventh, the Lunkers were still without a hit.  Teague matched Demmin\u2019s brilliance all afternoon, shutting out the MoonDogs allowing only three hits through seven innings of work.  <\/p>\n<p>When the bullpens took over, Brainerd finally began to find their offense.  The Lunkers threatened in both the 8th and 9th innings but both times the MoonDogs&#8217; defense answered the challenge.  In the 8th inning center fielder Alex Glenn (USC) threw out a runner at home plate and in the 9th, a missed squeeze play allowed catcher Bobby Jacobs (Penn State) to tag out Doran Williams (Emporia State) sending the game to extra innings.<\/p>\n<p>In the 10th inning the Lunkers finally broke through.  After loading the bases with one out, Vince Bruno (California-Berkeley) lined a fastball into left field, giving the Lunkers a 1-0 victory.  <\/p>\n<p>The lone bright spot offensively for the MoonDogs was Jordan Steranka (Penn State) who accounted for all three of the MoonDogs hits in the game.  <\/p>\n<p>Despite the no decision, Demmin continued his mastery of the Northwoods League in 2010.  In 19.2 innings, he has yet to give up a run, allowed seven hits, and has struck out a Northwoods League leading twenty-four batters.<\/p>\n<p>The two teams will finish their three-game series Monday in Brainerd at 7:05 pm before the first scheduled off day of the season on Tuesday.<\/p>\n<p>####<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Brainerd, MN &#8211;
