Cole Bellair (Illinois) took the loss for Rockford, giving up five runs in 5 2\/3 innings of work.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tTom Stoffel (Virginia Tech) took Bellair deep in the top of the second inning, but Rockford quickly tied the game in the bottom of the second with Cal Aldridge (Wisconsin-Whitewater) scoring on a double from Tyler Lowe (Elgin Community College). The Rivets took the lead in the third off runs from Aldridge and Bren Spillane (Illinois).\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tThe real damage came in the sixth inning, where the Bombers managed four more runs off Bellair (0-1). Nick Drahozal (Nebraska-Omaha) came in and pitched the remainder of the game for Rockford, allowing just one more earned run.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tRockford inched back, with Neal Tyrell (Lewis) scoring in the seventh and Spillane in the ninth, both on RBI from Hunter Feduccia (LSU-Eunice). This was not enough for Rockford, as John Rave (Illinois State) struck out with a man on base to end the game with a final score of 6-5.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tParsons notched the win for Battle Creek with 3 earned runs in 6 1\/3 innings, and TJ Shook (Oakland) recorded the save.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tRockford&rsquo;s young season continues tomorrow, Sunday June 4 with a matinee game at 4:05 p.m. as the series concludes with Bark in the Park!
