Green Bay falls to La Crosse in second straight home contest
ASHWAUBENON, Wis. – The Rockers lost the finale of a four-game series against the Loggers 3-2. La Crosse won the season series 3-1 over Green Bay after triumphing in the previous two games at Capital Credit Union Park.
The first inning came with runs on both sides. La Crosse struck first with a Zach Wadas (TCU) double to score the Loggers first run, and a Luke Davis (Long Beach City College) to score their second. The Rockers retaliated with a run of their own thanks to a Jake Bold (Princeton) RBI single.
From there the pitchers took over, only two more runs scored in the rest of the game, one from each team in the fourth. Rocker’s reliever Treshon Paschal (Southern Arkansas) came in with one out remaining in the fourth and picked up 2 strikeouts and only gave up 1 hit during his two-inning stint. But it was Kyle Dobyns (Hawaii) who was the Rockers biggest star today. He faced ten batters, recorded five strikeouts, no hits, walks, or runs.
Despite the stellar pitching, Green Bay was unable to make up the deficit to the Loggers, and the game ended 3-2 in favor of the visitors. Next, the Rockers travel to Mequon to take on the Lakeshore Chinooks tomorrow. First pitch is scheduled for 1:05 p.m. The next game at Capital Credit Union Park will be on Monday, June 10th to host the Chinooks.
