Jason Yano<strong> (Stevens Institute of Technology)<\/strong>&nbsp;earned&nbsp;the win, allowing just two hits in 7.2 innings of work. Spencer Greer <strong>(Dixie State)<\/strong> closed the game out for Rochester on the mound and was credited with the save. William Paschal <strong>(Georgia Gwinnett)<\/strong> lead the Honkers at the plate with two hits and a run-batted-in.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tThe game was dominated by pitchers early on. Yano minimalized the MoonDogs&rsquo; effectiveness even without matching the strikeout count put up by the MoonDogs&rsquo; starter, Austin Warner<strong> (Bellarmine University)<\/strong>, who had 10 Ks in 5 innings.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tThe two teams combined for just five hits through seven innings. In the eighth, Colby Green<strong> (Triton CC)<\/strong> got to first on a walk by Mankato reliever Reece Edins <strong>(Nebraska)<\/strong>, then advanced to third on sacrifice grounders by Zach Heaser <strong>(North Dakota<\/strong>) and Trey Kamachi (Dixie State). Paschal followed that up with a single that brought Green in for what would be the go-ahead run.&nbsp; The Honkers other run came when Brad Mathiowetz <strong>(DMACC)<\/strong> scored on an error by catcher Kaden Moore <strong>(Indiana State)<\/strong> on what would be the game&rsquo;s final play as Joe DeRoche-Duffin <strong>(UCONN)<\/strong>, who tied Paschal for the team lead in hits, was thrown out attempting to steal third.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tThe Honkers&rsquo; Next game will be their home opener on Thursday, May 28<sup>th<\/sup>, against the Alexandria Blue Anchors. It will be the first game of a two-game home stand against the Blue anchors before the&nbsp;Honkers head out on a five-game road trip. Thursday the World Famous ZOOperstars will be entertaining the crowd and the first 500 fans will receive a free poster schedule courtesy of Johnson Printing.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t#\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<em>The Rochester Honkers are a member of the finest developmental league for elite college baseball players, the Northwoods League.
