On Friday night, The Rockers (21-11) came from behind to beat the Wausau Woodchucks (19-14) 5-4, locking in a crucial series sweep and extending their win streak to seven games.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Caleb Daniel got things started with a bang, launching a solo home run in the first inning to give the Rockers an early 1-0 lead. But Wausau didn\u2019t stay quiet for long \u2014 a two-run homer in the second and a solo shot in the third gave the visitors a 3-1 advantage.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">After a quiet stretch, Collin Helms brought the crowd back to life in the sixth with a solo home run that cut the deficit to one. In the seventh, Eric Jeon came through with a clutch RBI double to tie things up at 3-3. Another Rockers base hit gave Green Bay the lead once again at 4-3.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The Rockers added some insurance in the eighth thanks to an RBI double by Eli Selga. Wausau got one back on a wild pitch to make it 5-4, but that\u2019s as close as they\u2019d get.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Down to the final three outs, the Rockers defense held strong to seal the win \u2014 and the sweep. The loss officially eliminates Wausau from first-half playoff contention, while Green Bay remains in first place in the Great Lakes West with just a few games left in the half. This series had major playoff implications, and the Rockers made their statement loud and clear.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">###<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The Green Bay Rockers are a member of the finest dev<\/span><\/i><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">elopmental league for elite college baseball players, the Northwoods League.
