Wisco took a 2-0 lead in the bottom of the first on Ristow's two-run double. The advantage held until the top of the 5th, when the Pacers strung together some hits and took advantage of two wild pitches to go ahead 4-2.
But the offense responded in the bottom half of the inning. Noah Bilitz's bases-loaded walk drove in one run and was immediately followed by a bases-clearing, 3-RBI double by Ristow to put the Vikings on top for good. Jack Olson and Raabe followed up with RBI singles to cap a six-run inning, and the team pushed three more runs across in the sixth to provide the final margin.
Raabe threw 2.1 scoreless innings in relief of Bilitz to pick up the victory on the mound. Ristow doubled twice and Mason Ruh and Caleb Bilitz also added extra-base hits.
