Ashwaubenon, Wis. - The Rockers' losing streak to Wausau continued Monday night, losing 6-1, and falling to 4-4 on the season. With a three-run ninth inning, Wausau was able to add some insurance runs and improve to 6-2 this year.

The troubles started early on for Green Bay, when their starter, Caden Crask-Weeks, was only able to pitch for one inning, after he exceeded the 35 inning maximum pitch count. He finished the inning allowing two runs, and an early lead for the Woodchucks. Wausau jumped on him early via an RBI single from outfielder Anthony Cole.

Green Bay was able to strike back in the bottom half of the first, with an RBI groundout from catcher John Handy, which scored newly activated Rocker RJ Furcal Jr.

It was a pitchers duel until the fourth inning, when Wausau attempted a double steal with Jake Berkland and Ryan Chase. Berkland eventually crossed home, while Chase got caught in the rundown between first and second base; however, it worked in their advantage, as Berkland crossed home before the out was recorded, and therefore giving Wausau a larger advantage.

Five innings of long relief from Kaden Straily, including five strikeouts, held Wausau at bay for most of the latter half of the game. In the ninth Wausau broke it open, with a two-run shot from Jace Souza and an RBI single from Cole for his third run batted in of the night. A strikeout of the side by Jack Garvey concluded the night, and gave Wausau a two game advantage in the Great Lakes West.
