Green Bay looks to win their second straight game on Monday night.
Ashwaubenon, Wis.- The Rockers are set to host the Fond du Lac Dock Spiders on Monday night. The meeting will begin the third series of the season between the two ball clubs. First pitch for Monday night’s game will be at 6:35 p.m.
In Sunday’s game, the Rockers were able to defeat the Kenosha Kingfish 8-2. The game was called off after eight innings due to multiple rain delays. The Rockers’ offense was able to tally 12 hits, with three of those coming off the bat of Blake Wilson (Kansas State). Kyle West (West Virginia) launched a three-run homer to right field in the seventh inning.
Earning the win on the mound for the Rockers was Grayson Walker (Dickinson). This outing was the second win of the season for Walker. He pitched four scoreless innings on the mound, only allowing one hit and striking out two batters.
With the win, Green Bay remains tied for first place with the Wausau Woodchucks in the Great Lakes West division. Both teams are 16-12 and are half a game ahead of the Madison Mallards and Wisconsin Rapids Rafters.
On the hill for the Rockers in Monday night’s matchup will be Brett Sanchez (Belhaven). The right-hander has been one of the elite pitchers of the Northwoods League so far this season. Across his four starts, Sanchez has struck out 34 batters and has only allowed three earned runs this season (1.08 ERA).
Pitching for the Dock Spiders will be Joseph Chavana (Trinity). In the 9.2 innings he’s pitched, he’s earned a win and a save while striking out seven batters.
Monday night’s game will be another edition of Free Hot Dog Monday at the ballpark. Through our partners at Salmon’s Meat Products, free hot dogs will be handed out for the first 90 minutes after gates open.
