The engaged crowd of 1,694 enjoyed Thirsty Thursday while the home team stayed red hot.

Beloit entered the sixth inning trailing 2-1, but with two outs, Bennett Hostetler doubled to left to plate Dalvy Rosario to tie the game. Ynmanol Marinez followed with a single to plate Hostetler, and later in the inning, Federico Polanco walked with the bases loaded to force in a run.

Evan Fitterer got the start for Beloit and allowed two runs in five innings of work. Chris Mokma earned the win to improve to 3-6 on the season after two scoreless innings, and Jake Walters threw the final two innings to record his first save of the season. Walters recorded two straight strikeouts with the bases loaded to end the game.

The six-game series will continue Friday night, with the first pitch scheduled for 6:35 p.m. The game will be followed by a fantastic fireworks display.
