The loss snaps Waterloo&#039;s five game winning streak as the Bucks move into second place in the Northwoods League North Division standings.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tNo score after two innings until Zac Wiley lined a shot back to the mound that hit off the Waterloo starting pitcher Nathan Walker (1-1) and ricocheted into left field plating the first two runs of the game.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tThe Bucks didn&#039;t have an answer until the bottom of the fifth inning when a groundout to second baseman by Keaton Presley was good enough to get Waterloo on the board trailing 2-1. MoonDog starting pitcher Tyler Lesley (2-0) was effective all night striking out five batters and only allowing the lone run.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tThe score remained 2-1 until the top of the eigth inning when the MoonDogs cashed in with two outs thanks a two-run single to center by Kenton Crews and an RBI bloop single to center from Alvaro Rubalcaba.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tMankato took a 5-1 lead into the bottom of the ninth inning and the Bucks put a runner on at first base but Grant Hawkins grounded into a game-ending double play.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tThe Bucks conclude the four-game home stand by wrapping up a two-game series against the Mankato Moondogs at 6:35 p.m. tomorrow, June 8 on 70&#039;s Throwback Thursday presented by Miller High Life.\n<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">\n\t###\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<em>The Waterloo Bucks are a member of the finest developmental league for elite college baseball players, the Northwoods League.
