Green Bay hosts Fond Du Lac at Capital Credit Union Park for the first time this season

In yesterday’s game, Green Bay kept their bats hot and collected 12 hits against Rafters pitching. The Rockers led 3-1 going into the fifth inning. Sam Miller (Columbia) hit an outfield single with the bases loaded to score two, and Cooper Kelly (Oral Roberts) drove in a third run in the next at bat for Green Bay’s most successful inning on offense, moving the score to 6-1.
