Waterloo, Iowa — <\/b>The Mankato MoonDogs dropped the first of two games in Iowa this weekend against the Waterloo Bucks, 8-2, Friday.<\/p>\n

Waterloo\u2019s big third inning, despite only getting a hit, saw them score five runs and get help from the MoonDogs defense with a couple walks and an error. As a result, the Bucks eventually handed the MoonDogs their third loss in a row while winning their fifth straight.<\/p>\n

The Bucks scored another pair for insurance in the fifth.\u00a0Tristan Peterson\u00a0<\/b>logged the first RBI on a base knock. The second run scored on a wild pitch to make it 7-0.<\/p>\n

Mankato avoided being shutout in the seventh. After\u00a0Jake Thompson<\/b>\u00a0led off the inning with a single, he later scored on a bases -loaded walk taken by\u00a0Tanner Craig<\/b>.\u00a0Max Wright\u00a0<\/b>followed suit and scored in the next at bat when\u00a0Zach Gilles\u00a0<\/b>drew a bases-loaded walk. It was a 7-2 game after the seventh at Riverfront Stadium.<\/p>\n

Peterson added another RBI to his Friday resume with a sacrifice fly in the eighth to make it 8-2 Bucks, where it would ultimately finish.<\/p>\n
