The two teams would be even going into the eighth inning, but Windom’s Brett Mattson would get the walk-off single to score the winning run in the bottom of the frame.

Windom’s winning pitcher, Chad Lindaman, pitched four and one-third innings, scattering three hits and striking out six. Heron Lake’s Tom Albrecht recorded the complete-game loss, striking out five and walking one.
