Kevin Dowdell (West Virginia) drove in the first run of the game with an RBI double, Carson Stevens (Cal Poly) followed him with a run scoring single. In the second Tyler White (Long Beach State) and Dario Gomez (Nevada) drove in two of the three Rochester runs with RBI singles.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Bismarck put up a pair of runs in the top of the fourth but the Honkers blew the game open in the bottom half. They scored six runs on five hits to take a 12-2 lead. The big hits were an Alex Ritzer (UNC) RBI single and Dario Gomez two run single. However, Bismarck battled their way back. They scored two runs in the sixth on a Kaiden Cardoso (Minot State) solo home run and an RBI groundout.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>However, things got very interesting in the eighth inning at Mayo Field. The Larks scored seven runs on seven hits to make it a one run game. Cole Mahlum (Dakota County Tech) came in and got out of the jam stranding the tying and go-ahead runs on base with a strikeout and groundout. Mahlum came back out for the ninth and locked it down by striking out the side.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>With the win the Honkers improve to 26-31 this summer. They\u2019ll look to sweep the series against Bismarck on Wednesday afternoon.
