Madison, Wis. - The Bullfrogs swung the bats well early on Thursday night, but the Mallards rallied late and came back to defeat Green Bay, 12-5 in Madison.

The Bullfrogs got on top early with three runs in the first inning, all via the home run. Robert Youngdahl led off with a solo shot and two batters later Boomer White hit a two-run home run to give Green Bay a 3-0 lead.

The Mallards tied it up in the bottom of the inning on a two-run home run from Drew Weeks, and Green Bay led it 3-2 until the fourth, when Madison tacked on two to take a 4-3 lead.

The Mallards added another in the fifth to make it 5-3, but the Bullfrogs later tied things up in the top of the seventh, with the runs scored by Jimmy Coady and Trevin Sonnier. Both runs were unearned to Madison pitching.

The Mallards, however, came roaring back with seven runs of their own in the bottom of the seventh to make it 12-5, the eventual final. Madison sent 13 batters to the plate in the inning, and ended up stranding the bases loaded.

Both teams went scoreless through the final two frames.

The loss went to Green Bay's Logan West. The win was earned by Madison's Nick Hibbing.

The Bullfrogs head to Battle Creek Friday to begin a three game weened series against the Bombers. It will be the first meeting between the teams this season.

The Bullfrogs return home next Tuesday to take on the Wisconsin Rapids Rafters. The first pitch is scheduled for 7:05 p.m. It is KIDS DAY 2013 presented by Gallagher's Pizza and 2 for 1 Tuesdays with Y100.
