FOND DU LAC, WI - Tommy Googins delivered a walk-off RBI single in the bottom of the 11th inning as the Dock Spiders defeated the Wausau Woodchucks 8-7.

Fond du Lac opened the scoring in the third inning on a wild pitch and an RBI hit from designated hitter Parker Aaron. Wausau tied the game at 2-2 before the Dock Spiders regained the lead in the sixth on an RBI double by Dylan Archuleta and a sacrifice fly from Miles Vandenheuvel.

The Woodchucks answered in the following inning, highlighted by an RBI double from Gavin Obremski, and eventually tied the game at 4-4. The score remained even through nine innings.

The Woodchucks then took a two-run lead in the 11th inning before the Dock Spiders rallied. Carson Willis tied the game with a two-run single, and Tommy Googins followed with a walk-off RBI single to complete the comeback and secure the victory.
