BOX SCORE<\/a><\/p>\n

Ashwaubenon, Wis.- The Green Bay Rockers walked it off for the second straight weekend Sunday afternoon, taking down the Wausau Woodchucks 11-10 at Capital Credit Union Park, led by a walk-off sacrifice fly from Jayson Jones (Arkansas).<\/p>\n

The Rockers also snapped a five-game losing streak Sunday with the victory at home and will now head into a league wide off day with a dramatic one-run victory over the Woodchucks to finish off to a four-game homestand dating back to Thursday.<\/p>\n

In the first inning, Wausau took an early 1-0 lead on a bases loaded walk drawn by Andrew Jimenez (University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee) but it was Green Bay who took the lead on a two-run homer from Jones and an RBI infield single from Jack Holman (UCLA), as this put the Rockers ahead 3-1 through the first inning.<\/p>\n

The Woodchucks made it a 3-2 game off an error by Green Bay, and that score remained the case through three innings after both sides went scoreless in the third inning of play.<\/p>\n

Wausau scored six runs in the fourth with three of them coming off the bat of Brent Widder (University of Evansville) on a three-RBI double and the Woodchucks took an 8-3 lead through three and a half innings following the six-run outburst for the visitors.<\/p>\n

However, the Rockers made it an 8-6 game off a two-RBI single from Kendal Ewell (Kentucky) and a double steal that scored Cooper Kelly (Kansas), with this trimming the deficit to 8-6 with the game approaching the fifth.<\/p>\n

Green Bay tied things up courtesy of a two-run homer from Holman as his second home run of the season put the Rockers squared with Wausau at 8-8 heading into the sixth at Capital Credit Union Park.<\/p>\n

Following a scoreless sixth inning on both sides, Wausau tacked on two runs in the seventh with a two-run homer from Colin Brueggemann (Oklahoma St) giving the Woodchucks their ninth and 10th<\/sup> runs of the ballgame and putting them ahead by two through six and a half innings of play.<\/p>\n

After no runs came across in the bottom of the seventh and the top of the eighth, Green Bay made it a one-run ballgame off an RBI groundout from Carlos Hernandez (Anderson University) making it a 10-9 score approaching the ninth, with the Rockers in search of the walk-off victory.<\/p>\n

AJ Anzai (Chapman) led off the bottom of the ninth with a towering solo shot to right center field, tying it up at 10-10 with still no one out in the frame.<\/p>\n

Following the Rockers loading up the bases, that set the stage for Jones to drive home the game winning run, as on a sacrifice fly, Andrew Harris (Wisconsin-Parkside) ran home from third to seal the deal for Green Bay, handing them the walk-off win Sunday afternoon in the last regular season meeting against the Woodchucks.<\/p>\n

Following a league wide off day Monday, the Rockers begin a four-game road trip with a two-game series against the Kokomo Jackrabbits. First pitch from Kokomo Municipal Stadium is set for 6:05 p.m. CT.<\/p>\n
