\n\tMankato, Minnesota—To begin the final home stand of the 2016 regular season, the Mankato MoonDogs hosted the La Crosse Loggers in a game that would be cut short by weather after five innings, with the Loggers leading 9-4.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tThe first inning was an eventful one, with seven total runs scored between the two teams, four by La Cross and three from Mankato as each starter was roughed up.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Loggers would score another three in the second, to chase starter Josh Matheson while extending their lead to four runs, 7-3, after two innings.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tEach team would score a run in the third, while La Crosse would add their ninth and final run in the fifth inning after a short delay caused by a lightning sighting.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tOnce the fifth inning was completed, the umps would rule the weather unplayable and call an end to the game, with La Crosse leading 9-4.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tChase Hamilton would go 2-for-2, with a home run, his ninth of the year, and two runs scored for Mankato.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tThe MoonDogs and Loggers will face off one final time tomorrow at Franklin Rogers Park, as Mankato fights for the coveted home playoff game in this years post-season.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tFirst pitch is set for 7:05 p.m. and tickets are still available to be purchased at the gate, in their office at 1221 Caledonia St., or online at www.mankatomoondogs.com<\/a>\n<\/p>\n
