Box: Wisconsin 6, Cedar Rapids (Twins) 2 Ward’s Three-Run Triple Leads Rattlers Past Cedar Rapids Ward has three hits and four RBI in 6-2 Wisconsin Win By Chris Mehring Pre-Game Media Notes (Download) *** AUDIO via the Rattler Radio Soundcloud: "Time for the first 'Chat with Matt' for the 2021 season. Manager Matt Erickson and Chris Mehring discuss the season so far, a few of the players, a cool opportunity for Harold Chirinos, and a painful anniversary for Matt." *** Scoreless through seven, so yes, this is wild game #3 of the night. The Timber Rattlers struck out 20 times and won by four. There was one sombrero in the mix.

Such an odd Timber Rattler debut for RH reliever Evan Reifert, so successful previously (walked all three men he faced here). Huge strand of three runners and a deserved victory for University of Iowa product Brady Schanuel - game played in Cedar Rapids, which is in, yeah, you got it. I've always felt that if you get youngsters involved in some basic sports league game tracking, you can really impress upon them lessons in U.S. geography.
