ASHWAUBENON, WI (WSAU) – The last remaining undefeated team in the Northwoods League has fallen after Wausau topped the Green Bay Rockers 7-4 Friday night in Ashwaubenon.
Wausau scored two runs in both the third and fourth innings and three runs in the seventh inning.
The Georgia State ‘Chucks have been doing great work with the sticks, as Dalton Pearson went 3/4 with a two-run home run, a walk, and three runs, and Jesse Donohoe went 1/3 with a double and two walks. Mike Maginnis was held without a hit but had an RBI and two stolen bases.
Brady Jurgella (Minnesota) scored the sixth Wausau run Friday by hitting an RBI single — scoring Dalton Pearson — then stealing second, third, and home base.
With Friday’s win and Madison’s loss, the Woodchucks have taken over first place in the Great Lakes West division. Wausau will come right back on Saturday to play the Rockers again. First pitch from Capital Credit Union Park will be at 6:05 p.m.
