Green Bay Rockers Fall in Both Ends of a Double Header in Wisconsin Rapids

The Green Bay Rockers lost twice yesterday in Wisconsin Rapids. The Rafter won the opener 10-9, and again in the nightcap 3-1.

In game one, the Rafters used a 5 run 4^th and a 3 run 6^th inning to help build a 10-3 lead entering the 8^th inning.

Mateo Matthews drove in a pair and Zane Zielinski added a sac fly in the 8th, and in the 9^th, a wild pitch brought home a run, and Matthews again drove in a pair to get within one run.

However, the comeback was cut short by two consecutive strikeouts.

In game two, the Rafters scored twice in the 4^th inning off of Cooper Dossett and one more in the 5^th off of Jacob Faulkner, and the Rattler batters simply couldn’t recapture the magic from game one.

Green Bay is back at it tonight, this time in from of a home crowd.

Brett Sanchez is slated to square off against the Madison Mallards’ Tommy Meyer at Capital Credit Union Park, with a first pitch scheduled for 6:35 p.m.
