Notes from the Game Notes I’d really like you to read:

QUALITY THROUGH AND THROUGH: Andy Moye, Wisconsin’s starting pitcher on Monday, allowed two runs – one earned – on four hits with no walks and four strikeouts. His start was the eighth quality start (6IP with three of fewer earned runs) of the season for the Rattlers. That quality start by Moye was also the fifth straight by Wisconsin starters. The streak started with Matt Miller on April 26 and continued with Drew Gagnon (4/27), Mark Williams (4/28), David Goforth (4/29), and Moye on 4/30.

NOT JUST THREE OR LESS RUNS EITHER: In the last five games, Wisconsin starters have gone 32-1/3 innings and allowed six runs (three earned) on 17 hits with five walks and 15 strikeouts.

Clinton Weather Radar…because everyone at the ballpark is telling me to expect rain – nay – a STORM from the Thunder God himself around 6:00pm.

First pitch for tonight’s game is 6:30pm

Tune in for the Miller Lite Pregame Show at 6:10pm on AM1280, WNAM or through their internet feed.
