Eau Claire, Wis. – The Waterloo Bucks (4–4) had themselves another dramatic late-inning rally as they scored the go-ahead run in the top of the ninth to take their second game against the Eau Claire Express (4–4), 6–5.

The game-winning run came across when Bucks outfielder Blake Burris scored from third base on a wild pitch. Burris had walked himself aboard earlier in the inning before stealing second and moving to third on a groundout from Cameron Cromer.

Bucks were up by five runs at one point in the game after scoring four in the second inning and one in the third inning, but the Express fought back to tie the game in the bottom of the eighth.

Bucks outfielder Cole Hill led the way for the Bucks, going 2-for-5 with a walk and two runs scored. Cole has now scored eight runs for the Bucks in his past four games.

The Bucks are once again back at .500, having won four of their last five. Their next series will be a home and home against the Rochester Honkers (6–2). The series starts tomorrow with first pitch slated for 6:35 p.m. in Waterloo.
