Green Bay took the first two games on June 11 and June 12.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Both of these squads enter this evening\u2019s matchup on the heels of back-to-back losses in their respective road series. The Rockers dropped a pair of games at Wausau this weekend, while the Rafters lost two at Waterloo.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">In their series against the Woodchucks, the Rockers got two big-time performances from first baseman Mateo Matthews (Wagner). The returning champion from last year\u2019s squad went 3-for-5 at the plate in his two games played, hitting for a pair of doubles as well. Matthews also drew four walks over the pair of games against Wausau, and now leads Green Bay with a .441 on-base percentage.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">With Matthews leading the way, the Rockers put up 21 hits over the weekend, so they will aim to carry over that prolific hitting to tonight\u2019s tilt with the Rafters.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">As for the Green Bay defense, it will be led by starting pitcher Henry Chabot (Chapman) tonight. Another returner from last year\u2019s title team, the righty is second on the Rockers with 24 strikeouts and 19.1 innings pitched.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Chabot has yet to start a game this season, but in his last two relief appearances he\u2019s tossed nearly 10 frames. During those stints, the Arizona native has struck out a dozen batters while walking just two. Chabot also pitched in both games against the Rafters earlier this season, fanning three hitters across 1.1 scoreless innings.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Gates for tonight\u2019s contest open at 5:30 p.m., and Olivia Maro will be performing live from then until the end of the third inning. It\u2019s also Toppers Pizza two-for-one Tuesday, which means all reserved tickets in the main seating bowl will be two for the price of one.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Additionally, this evening\u2019s game marks Salute to Public Service Night. To celebrate, there is an $11 ticket and hat special for all public service members who choose to attend.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Single game tickets are on sale now. Visit\u00a0www.greenbayrockers.com\u00a0or call the ticket office at 920-497-7225 to reserve your seats today. The Rockers front office and Team Apparel Fan Shop at Capital Credit Union Park are located at 2231 Holmgren Way in Ashwaubenon. Office hours are Monday-Friday 8:30am-5pm.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\">###<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\"><i>The Green Bay Rockers are a member of the finest developmental league for elite college baseball players, the Northwoods League.
