LAST TIME OUT
The Rox put together a hodge-podge of odd baseball in order to secure their 14th win of the year on Saturday at Joe Faber Field.
Dominic Smaldino got the scoring started for St. Cloud in the bottom of the first inning with his fifth home run of the year to give the Rox an early 1-0 lead. Minot would even it up at one, but Austin Haley singled home Tanner Recchio to give the Rox the lead back.
Minot would then take a 6-2 lead, but St. Cloud battled back in the later innings with some opportune hitting by Tanner Recchio to make it a one-run game going into the bottom of the ninth.
The bases would be loaded with nobody out after the Rox tied it up in the bottom of the ninth, and Austin Haley would be struck by a pitch to give the Rox the walk-off victory.
