LOVES PARK, Ill. (WTVO/WQRF) — Put this one in the win column for the Rockford Rivets, and put an exclamation point next to it. Second baseman Jackson Forbes slugged a three-run homer in the bottom of the 9th inning to break up a 5-5 tie and give the Rivets an 8-5 walk-off win against the Traverse City Pit Spitters Wednesday night.

Forbes also had another hit. Center fielder Connor Kave had three hits. Third Baseman Beau Bloxdorf had two hits.

The Rivets now head out on the road for a single game in Kenosha Thursday night. The Rivets will then head home for three games over the weekend.
