On the hitting side, Zac Johnson was a standout: he went 3-for-5 with two doubles, one stolen base, and one run. That's the most doubles he has posted since back in April. The team also got some help courtesy of Kaleb Stout, who got on base in four of his five plate appearances with one run and one RBI.
