A disastrous fifth inning saw the Rockers\u2019 pitching staff surrender six runs, allowing the Mallards to seize the lead and ultimately secure a mental victory.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The Rockers came out strong, building an early advantage with solid hitting and effective pitching. However, the momentum shifted dramatically in the final stretch\u00a0 when the Mallards capitalized on a series of walks, hits, and defensive miscues to plate the winning runs. The Rockers\u2019 bullpen struggled to contain the Mallards\u2019 offense during this frame, leading to the game\u2019s pivotal turnaround.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Despite the setback, the Rockers showed resilience, threatening to rally in the later innings. However, the Mallards\u2019 bullpen held firm, preventing any further scoring and sealing the win for Madison.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The Rockers will look to bounce back as they continue their series against the Mallards. Our next home game is on Educators Appreciation night, June 6th. That\u00a0 night will also feature a pre-game concert performance by Until Dawn Trio.
