Two players make Northwoods League All-Star Team representing the Rockers
Ashwaubenon, Wis.- Two players from the Green Bay Rockers made the 2022 Northwoods League All-Star Team on Friday, after both had outstanding seasons for the Rockers throughout this past summer.
Garcia and Carter join 30 other players as part of the All-Star squad here in 2022 after they both played for the majority of the 2022 summer including in the Northwoods League All-Star Game this past July.
This past season, the Arkansas Razorback pitched 57.2 innings and struck out 48 batters while walking just 18 and finished with a 2.97 ERA in nine games pitched.
One of his premier starts came against the Lakeshore Chinooks on June 12, in which he pitched a complete game shutout with eight strikeouts and just five hits given up.
Garcia completed his second summer with Green Bay with a .345 batting average, hitting five home runs, and knocking in 46 RBIs. His 79 hits also are good for third in the entire Northwoods League.
The Western Kentucky product delivered a signature moment for the Rockers at home this season as he hit a two-run walk-off home run against the Lakeshore Chinooks earlier in June.
Garcia also competed in the Major League Dreams Showcase as well as the Northwoods League All-Star Game and in the All-Star Game, he went 1-2 with a run scored and a hit.
The Rockers finish out the 2022 season Friday at home against the Chinooks before taking on Lakeshore in a doubleheader on Saturday to close out the regular season.
