ASHWAUBENON, Wis. - The Rockers will head to Fond Du Lac for the second matchup in a two-game series against the Dock Spiders. First pitch for the game is scheduled for 6:35 pm. Green Bay lost the first game of the series in the I-41 showdown in extra innings 9-8.

Despite falling behind 4-0 after two innings, Green Bay fought back with a Seth Farni (Ole Miss) home run to score two, and Mulivai Levu (UCLA) hit a two RBI single in the fifth to level the score 5-5.

Pinch runner Taylor Shultz (Georgia State) scored the go-ahead run on a Luke Moeller (Grand Canyon) sac fly to make the score 8-7 in the top of the ninth.
