Rockers Take Down Woodchucks 6-5

ASHWAUBENON, Wis. – The surging Woodchucks could not get the last run they needed after being down

five Thursday night at Capital Credit Union Park.

Down 6-1 into the sixth inning, Wausau (1-2/21-17) needed to get something working to stay in the game.

After loading the bases with no outs, Brady Jurgella (Minnesota) came to the plate and delivered in a big

way, hitting his first triple of the season and scoring all three runs.

Jurgella would be scored in the next at-bat by Jesse Donohoe (Georgia State) who hit an RBI single.

Those four runs would not be enough though, as still needing one run to tie, Wausau was held scoreless in

the seventh, eighth and ninth innings by Green Bay (2-1/23-17).

Key Moments:

Mark Shallenberger (Evansville) and Colin Brueggemann (Oklahoma State) each had multi-hit games.

Brueggemann’s hit streak is now at 13 games as well.

Relief pitcher Dominick Reid (Oklahoma State) pitched two scoreless innings in the seventh and eighth to

give Wausau the best chance to win. He would strike out one of seven batters faced.

Up Next:

Wausau returns home to face off against Green Bay Friday night at Athletic Park. First pitch is at 6:35

p.m. July 7 and it will be Firework Friday, sponsored by Festival Foods.
