Green Bay\u2019s offense poured it on with 13 runs on six hits, backed by smart base running and several hard-hit balls that found the gaps.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Starting pitcher Maddox Long was untouchable in his first start of the season. The right-hander went five scoreless innings, allowing just two hits while striking out seven. He kept the Rafters guessing with a mix of pitches and well-located fast balls, helping the Rockers set the tone early on.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Green Bay\u2019s scoring began in the second inning and picked up steam quickly. A four-run third gave the Rockers a comfortable lead, which ballooned over the next few frames with multiple run innings. The bats stayed hot with contributions from every part of the lineup.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Brandon Rogers and Collin Helms each recorded base hits. The Rockers also capitalized on the Rafters pitching, drawing sixteen walks which allowed additional runs to score.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">With this win, the Rockers improved to 2-0 on the season, demonstrating both offensive firepower and pitching depth. They\u2019ll look to carry this momentum in their next matchup at Capital Credit Union Park tomorrow night for the first game of their series against the Rockford Rivets. Doors will open at 5:30 with a guest performance by \u201cThe Cheese Doodles.\u201d The first pitch of tomorrow&#8217;s game will be at 6:35 p.m.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Tickets for the 2025 season are available online at www.greenbayrockers.com or by calling the ticket office at 920-497-7225 to reserve your seats today.
