ASHWAUBENON, Wis. - The Green Bay Rockers (4-7) travel to Wausau today to face the Woodchucks (9-2) for game two of the home-and-home series. Yesterday, the Rockers took down the Woodchucks 8-6 to extend their winning streak to three. First pitch for tonight's matchup is scheduled for 6:05 p.m. at Athletic Park.
Green Bay took an early lead in the first inning when Mulivai Levu (UCLA) hit an RBI single to score the first run of the game. Jake Bold (Princeton) followed that up with a sacrifice hit to take a 2-0 lead. Then in his first game with the Rockers, Blade Carver (Northern Oklahoma) sent the first pitch he saw over the left field wall to move the lead to four in the second inning. Carver would come back for his third RBI of the game in the fifth on a single to score the seventh run of the game for Green Bay.
Wausau managed to fight back, scoring six unanswered in the sixth and seventh innings to make the game 7-6. Jake Bold (Princeton) scored again in the bottom of the seventh with his fifth home run of the season to get the lead up to two. Treshon Paschal (Southern Arkansas) came in to pitch in the eighth, facing six batters and collecting the final six outs of the game to give the Rockers an 8-6 victory.
