The Green Bay Rockers began a critical four-game set against the Wausau Woodchucks with a thud, losing the opening matchup in Wausau 9-4.

The Rockers were down 3-0 in the sixth inning when Jake Bold tied the game up on a three-run homer as they collected five of their 11 hits in the frame. That happiness would be short-lived as they gave the lead back to Wausau in the bottom half of the inning when Max Galvin socked a two-run homer. The Rockers would get one of those runs back in the eighth thanks to Bold's second home run of the game, but the Woodchucks would put up a four spot in their half of the inning to thwart any hopes of a Rockers comeback..

Mikel Howell took the loss for the Rockers, allowing three runs on four hits in less than two innings of work.
