Winneconne waltzed into their matchup on Thursday with three straight wins... but they left with four. They blew past the Berlin Indians 11-1. While the Wolves didn't have the best season last year (they finished 4-16-1), it's starting to look like those struggles are a thing of the past.
Broderick Stille and Colson Kleinschmidt made a big impact no matter where they played. Throwing, Stille pitched 1.2 innings while giving up no earned runs off one hit. Meanwhile, Kleinschmidt struck out seven batters over 4.1 innings while giving up just one earned run off four hits. Stille has been consistent recently: he hasn't given up more than two hits in three consecutive appearances. At bat, Stille went 3-for-4 with three runs, one double, and one RBI, while Kleinschmidt went 3-for-4 with three RBI, two runs, and one stolen base. Stille is becoming a predictor of Winneconne's success: when he posts at least two runs the team is undefeated (and 4-5 when he doesn't).
In other batting news, the team relied heavily on Logan Binder, who went 1-for-3 with two RBI and one run. Those two RBI gave him a new career-high. Another player making a difference was Dallas Walker, who got on base in three of his four plate appearances with two runs, one stolen base, and one double.
