That's the most stolen bases Molitor has posted since back in April. Abbie Scott also deserves some recognition as she snagged her first stolen base of the season.

Reedsburg pushed their record up to 13-11 with the victory, which was their third straight at home. Those home wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 1.3 runs on average over those games. As for Waunakee, their victory bumped their record up to 11-12.
Reedsburg might still be hurting after the 11-4 loss they got from Waunakee in their previous meeting back in April of 2023. Can the Beavers avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
