Madison, WI \u2013 June 10, 2012. The Madison Mallards (5-6) will try to avoid the sweep against the Eau Claire Express (5-6) in the second game of a two game series. First pitch is scheduled for 3:05 pm.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

On Saturday the Express combined great starting pitching from starter Matt Trowbridge (Central Michigan) and a combined five runs in the third and fourth to steal the series opener 6-3. Trowbridge (2-0) went 6.0 shutout innings while allowing two hits.<\/p>\n

The Mallards continued their recent trend of relying on the long ball to generate offense. For the third straight game the Mallards scored their only runs off of a single home run, this time coming off the bat of right fielder Tyler Marincov (North Florida).<\/p>\n

Mallards second baseman Luis Munoz (Coffeyville CC) has been impressive with the glove, his 27 assists in nine games leads the team. Offensively Munoz has been a sparkplug for the team, hitting in the two spot in the lineup at times this season. His .250 batting average is second on the team.<\/p>\n

Anthony Marzi (Connecticut) will get the start for the Mallards on the hill. His last start Marzi struck out seven and allowed two runs in 4.0 innings in the Mallards 4-3 loss to the Wisconsin Rapids Rafters (5-6). \u00a0 \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Taking the ball for the Express is right-hander Philip Walby (San Diego State). In Walbys (1-0) first start of the season he pitched 7.0 innings of shutout baseball and struck out four in helping the Express win 2-1 over the Lakeshore Chinooks (7-4).<\/p>\n

Infielder Josh Schefert (Nebraska) had two RBIs in the Express win over the Mallards on Saturday, his first since a June 2nd<\/sup> in 9-6 loss to the Rafters. His eight RBIs lead the team and will be looking to add on to that total in the series finale.<\/p>\n

After wrapping up their two game series against the Express, the Mallards head to Wausau for the first time this season to take on the Wisconsin Woodchucks (6-5) for another two game series. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Mallards returns to the \u201cDuck Pond\u201d on Wednesday June 13th<\/sup> to take on the Bombers That night will be The Payroll Company Police Appreciation Night at the Ballpark featuring Erik Estrada from the hit TV show ChiPs.<\/p>\n
