Turnquist will be making his ninth start of the season as he currently holds a 6.90 ERA through 30 total innings pitched.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif\">On the hill for the Rafters will be right-hander Nate Hemmerling (Lakeland). Hemmerling has made four starts on the season and has a 1.32 ERA in 27.1 total innings pitched.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif\">This season the Rafters own the season series against Madison 7-3. The last matchup between these teams came back on July 13th. The Mallards were down by one heading into the ninth when Alex Iadisernia (Elon) hit a two run walk-off home run.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif\">The Ducks currently sit in third place in the Great Lakes West division, two games behind Fond Du Lac and 1.5 games behind the Wisconsin Woodchucks. The Green Bay Booyah are just a half game back of the Mallards as well, with Lakeshore and Wisconsin Rapids then rounding out the division.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif\">This is the first of another home-and-home series with the Rafters as these teams will play tomorrow in Wisconsin Rapids at 6:35 p.m. It will be the final matchup between the Rafters and Mallards this season.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>July 29th, 2021 &#8211; Game 54 &#8211; Madison Mallards vs. Wisconsin Rapids Rafters Madison, WI &#8211; The Duck Pond at  [&#8230;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":19,"featured_media":19599,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[15],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-19596","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-team-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.5 (Yoast SEO v26.5) -
