When the schedule calls for it and the weather cooperates you play the games.
Dodgeville's baseball team did that, starting with a SWC game with Platteville Thursday, a tournament at Stoddard Saturday, a non-conference meeting with Cuba City Monday and a SWC game with River Valley Tuesday.
That equals five games in six days and such is the life of spring baseball in Wisconsin.
It took eight innings to beat the Hillmen and sophomore right hander Cole Sullivan pitched every one of them.
Sullivan limited the Hillmen to five hits while striking out seven and walking four. He also scored the winning run in the eighth when Levi Nagel found a pitch he liked and drove it to the fence for a walk-off double to give the Dodgers a 3-2 win.
The Dodgers scored a run in the fourth when Brian Simmons walked, was balked to second, took third on a wild pitch and scored on a single by Jordan Olson.
They added one in the seventh that tied the game when Nagel walked, advanced on an error and scored on a sac fly by Austin Larson.
Nagel then delivered the gamewinner in the eighth.
Simmons was 2x3 for the Dodgers. Nagel, Larson, Sullivan, Olson and Aaron Dowling rounded out the seven hit attack.
The Dodgers met Melrose-Mindoro in the first game of the De Soto tournament and turned back the Mustangs 11-8.
Jordan Olson and Trent Jones split the mound duties with Jones getting the win.
Olson fanned three, walked two, gave up five runs with only one earned. He was touched for six hits.
Jones fanned three, walked three, gave up two hits and three runs, two earned.
Austin Larson drove the ball over the right field wall for a two run homer in the first. He finished 2x3.
Jake Brokish was 2x4 with a two run single in the fourth.
Olson was 2x3 and drove in two runs.
Jones also had an rbi and was 1x5.

Gale-Ettrick-Trempealeau tipped the Dodgers 6-5 in the championship game.
There was not an earned run in the game by either team.
Austin Larson worked six innings and Brian Simmons went the seventh for the Dodgers. Larson fanned six and walked two.
Dowling was 2x2 and Olson 2x4 against the Redhawks. Jones, Austin Larson, Cole Sullivan and Simmons each had one hit.
Chris Moor led off the seventh for Cuba City Monday and sent the ball over the fence for an 8-7 non-conference win.
The Dodgers had a 10 hit attack but couldn't plate either of the two players who reached base in the top of the seventh to gain the edge.

Levi Nagel also had a hit.
Aaron Dowling went 4 1/3 and Jordan Olson worked the final 2 2/3 for the Dodgers. Dowling fanned six and Larson one.
Tuesday a bases loaded walk in the top of the 12th inning to Collin Brummer forced in Jacob Straw with the winning run as River Valley tipped the Dodgers 4-3. Beau Solomon followed a Straw getting hit by a pitch with a single and Tim Knoll loaded the sacks with a fielders choice before Brummer coaxed his walk.
Knoll and freshman Elijah Alt led the Blackhawks with each going 2x6.
Lucas Price got the win with five innings of relief. He fanned seven and walked two.
Alt went the first seven, fanning two and walking two.
The Dodgers got their first run in the fourth when Cole Sullivan walked then advanced and scored on two errors.

The Dodgers tied the game in the seventh on a single by Levi Nagel, a stolen base and an error.
