Waterloo, Iowa — <\/strong>The Waterloo Bucks (7-2) produced a historic offensive showing on Saturday night with a 20-3 win over the Mankato Moondogs (1-7).<\/p>\n

The Bucks struck first when\u00a0Jalen Smith<\/b>\u00a0singled to score\u00a0Cameron Thompson,\u00a0<\/b>giving Waterloo an early 1-0 advantage after one inning.<\/p>\n

Mankato would answer back the following inning when\u00a0Michael Curialle <\/b>brought home a pair with a two-run single to score\u00a0Emanuel Dean<\/b>\u00a0and\u00a0Evan Berkey<\/b>\u00a0to put the Moondogs on top 2-1.<\/p>\n

It wouldn\u2019t take Waterloo long to get that run back\u00a0as they would even the score with a\u00a0Cameron Thompson\u00a0<\/b>RBI single in the bottom of the frame.<\/p>\n

Five more runs would come across for the Bucks in the next two innings to go up 7-2. Mankato would get one back on a sacrifice fly by\u00a0Zach Kokoska<\/b>\u00a0to score\u00a0Zach Gilles\u00a0<\/b>in the fifth inning.<\/b><\/p>\n

It would be all Waterloo from there as they would score 13 unanswered runs to finish the game to secure the 20-3 win.<\/p>\n

The Moondogs will return to action on Monday traveling to St. Cloud to face the Rox in a brief one-game series. First pitch is scheduled for 7:05 p.m.<\/p>\n
