The stadium will be at limited capacity for tonight\u2019s game as well as Tuesday\u2019s, but will then open to 100% capacity for the remainder of the season.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif\">\u201cI don\u2019t know if I\u2019ve ever been more excited for a season, everybody\u2019s ready to go,\u201d Mallards field manager Donnie Scott said. In addition to Scott, who has been the field manager in Madison since 2013, the Mallards will be coached by two former players in pitching coach Leon Davidson and assistant coach Ryne Stanley. Both were Mallards in 2019 and both just finished their senior and redshirt senior seasons at North Carolina A&amp;T State.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif\">Ryan Lauk, a right-handed pitcher out of Wagner University will be getting the opening day start on the mound for the Mallards. Lauk, a senior, has a career ERA of 4.94 and made 11 starts in his senior season. He has 142 career strikeouts in 138.1 innings pitched. \u201cRyan is special, he\u2019s got great stuff and throws strikes,\u201d Scott said. Lauk played under Scott last season when the Mallards roster was moved to Kenosha to play as the K-Town Bobbers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif\">Monday is opening day all across the Northwoods League, and the Lakeshore Chinooks also did not participate in the 2020 season due to COVID-19.
