UW-Whitewater's very own Max Huseboe (1-1) got the win for the Dock Spiders to even up his season record. Huseboe gave up three earned runs on nine hits while striking out three in a season-long seven innings on the mound.
With the win, Fond du Lac (5-11) drew to within two games of Kenosha (7-9) for a tie at fourth place in the Great Lakes East.
