Rockers withstand Woodchucks rally

The Wausau Woodchucks made things interesting, but the Green Bay Rockers were able to hold on for an 8-6 win Sunday afternoon. 

 

The Rockers jumped out to a 6-0 lead through the first three innings with Blade Carver's two-run blast in the second inning serving as the biggest blow. Carver's RBI single in the fifth proved to be an important insurance run as the Woodchucks began their charge after that with two runs in the sixth inning and four in the seventh. The Rockers would give themselves a little breathing room in the seventh when Jake Bold slugged a solo shot to make it 8-6. The Woodchucks would threaten in the eighth before leaving the frame with two men aboard, but went 1-2-3 in the ninth to give the Rockers their fourth win of the second half.

 

Sam Miller went 4-5 with two doubles, while Bold went 3-4 with two extra-base hits, including the homer.
