A familiar story haunted the Rivets again in their 9-1 loss to the Wisconsin Woodchucks on Sunday at Athletic Park.<\/p>\n

After working a 1-2-3 1st inning, Rivets starter Ryan O\u2019Reilly (Gr, Illinois-Chicago) was lit up for 8 runs on 8 hits in the 2nd inning, opening up a deficit from which Rockford couldn\u2019t recover, leading to the team\u2019s fourth consecutive loss.<\/p>\n

The defeat brings the Rivets\u2019 record to 8-12.\u00a0The 8 runs in the 2nd inning brings Rockford to 57 runs allowed in the first two innings of games this season.<\/p>\n

Rockford couldn\u2019t get much of anything going off of Woodchucks starter Nate Madej (R-So, Florida Southern College), who looked dominant in 6 innings of work – allowing 1 run on 5 hits while striking out 12 on his way to the win.<\/p>\n

The Rivets pushed across their lone run in the 6th inning, as Tyeler Hawkins (R-Fr, Louisville) came home from third on an RBI single by Jared Cushing (R-Fr, Xavier).<\/p>\n

Hawkins highlighted Rockford\u2019s offensive effort, going 3-4 with three singles.<\/p>\n

After O\u2019Reilly was chased from the game after 1.2 innings, three Rivets\u2019 bullpen arms combined for 7.1 innings of one run ball.<\/p>\n

Elijah Sanchez (Jr, Northern Illinois) recorded 2.1 scoreless frames after taking over for O\u2019Reilly, not surrendering a hit.<\/p>\n

Lefty Tyler Horvath (R-So, Illinois-Springfield) followed, allowing a run on just 1 hit while striking out 4 in his 2 frames of work.<\/p>\n

Jake Armstrong (R-So, UW-Milwaukee) bounced back from a tough outing in his first appearance of the summer on Friday night by hurling 2 scoreless innings, allowing just two singles.<\/p>\n

The Rivets will play 8 of their next 10 games at Rivets Stadium, starting with a 6-game homestand which gets underway tomorrow evening with a 6:05 matchup with the Kokomo Jackrabbits.<\/p>\n
