Wausau, Wis.- The Rockers are set to travel to Athletic Park for the second game of a two-game set with the Woodchucks. First pitch for Friday night\u2019s game is set for 6:35 p.m.<\/p>\n

In Thursday night\u2019s game, the Rockers held off a late-Wausau comeback to win the first game of the series 6-5. Green Bay left the yard three times in the third inning with home runs from George Wolkow (South Carolina), Cooper Kelly (Kansas), and Carlos Hernandez (Anderson).<\/p>\n

Despite a four-run-sixth inning from Wausau, the team would hold on due to the relief efforts of Michael Riley (Gateway CC) and Tyler Horvath (Case Western Reserve). Riley earned the win while Horvath pitched the save across six outs.<\/p>\n
