OCONOMOWOC, Wis. – The Lake Country DockHounds saw their six-game winning streak snapped Saturday night as the Fargo-Moorhead RedHawks clipped the DockHounds 6-1 in Wisconsin Brewing Company Park.
Lake Country’s offense fizzled out as the RedHawks’ starter tallied eight strikeouts in six innings. The DockHounds’ lone run came in the sixth following a Blake Tiberi sacrifice fly.
While the bats went silent, the starting pitching was impressive yet again. Luke Hansel dominated early and often as he went 5 ⅔ innings with six strikeouts. Hansel allowed just two runs.
With the DockHounds trailing 2-1 in the ninth, Fargo-Moorhead strung together several hits and led to a four-run blow-up inning. That insurance deflated the DockHounds enough to sink the historic winning streak.
Lake Country will look to rebound and take the series at 1:05 p.m. Sunday in Wisconsin Brewing Company Park.
