Eau Claire, WI \u2013 August 4, 2012. The Madison Mallards (17-9, 33-28) wrap up their five game road trip tonight with the rubber match of their three game series against the Eau Claire Express (12-15, 23-38). First pitch is scheduled for 6:35 pm.<\/p>\n

On Friday the Express got a monster 4-for-4, six RBI night from third baseman Josh Scheffert (Nebraska) on their way to a 9-6 win over the Mallards. With the victory Express halted their seven game season series losing streak to the Mallards that began on June 10th<\/sup>.<\/p>\n

Looking to get the Mallards back in the win column tonight is right-hander Trevor Foss (Texas A&M-Corpus Christi). In his last start, Foss (3-7) took the loss during a 7-1 defeat to the La Crosse Loggers (15-11, 40-21) on July 30th<\/sup>. The right-hander has been deadly from the mound, coming into tonight third in the Northwoods League with 63 strikeouts.<\/p>\n

Left-hander Matt Trowbridge (Central Michigan) will make his 10th<\/sup> start of the season tonight for the Express. Trowbridge (3-2) is coming off his shortest outing of the season, a 3.0 inning stint in which he gave up four runs on five hits and four walks during an 11-5 loss to the Lakeshore Chinooks (14-12, 31-30). The lefty comes into tonight sporting a 5.03 ERA and 48 strikeouts compared to 30 walks.<\/p>\n

Anything You Can Do I Can Do Better:<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

After Mallards center fielder John Welborn (Texas-San Antonio) earned Northwoods League Player of the Night with a 2-for-4, two home run night two nights ago, Scheffert followed up the next night to earn the honor with his stellar performance at the plate.<\/p>\n

Roughed Up:<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

There is no question that the Express have struggled on the mound this season, coming into tonight with a South Division worst 5.02 ERA.<\/p>\n

Up Next:<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

The Mallards return to the \u201cDuck Pond\u201d on Sunday, August 5th<\/sup> to start a five game series with the Chinooks. That night will be Marshfield Clinic Susan G. Komen for the Cure Night and Princess Millie Bobblehead Night at the ballpark.<\/p>\n
