WAUSAU, Wis. - Holding a 4-2 lead after seven innings was not enough for Wausau to avoid a sweep Tuesday night at Athletic Park, as Green Bay added four late runs to win 6-4.

Trailing 1-0, the Woodchucks would score their first run of the game in the second off a single by Matt Del Sol (Grayson College (TX)), allowing Travis Lutz (Bradley) to run home.

A two spot in the seventh after trailing 2-1 seemed like it could be enough to put the Woodchucks over the edge, but Green Bay's (9-7) three in the eighth and one in the ninth was all they needed.

Wausau (9-7) threatened with runners on second and third in the bottom of the ninth but would not add a run.

Key Moments:

Outfielder Colby Wallace (Cal State - Fullerton) had himself a quality first game as a Woodchuck, going 2/5 with two doubles and two runs scored.

Jacob Schroeder (Illinois) hit a fly ball to deep center field in the seventh that was dropped by Rocker centerfielder Cuyler Zukowski (Creighton), scoring two runs.

Up Next:

The Woodchucks will be back at Athletic Park on Thursday, where they will face the Rockford Rivets. First pitch is scheduled for 6:35 P.M. and it will be vintage video game night.
