Jared Fong (Washington U &#8211; St. Louis) then came in to pick up his seventh save on the mound to close out the victory.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif\">Coming into today, the Mallards sit 3.5 games back of the Woodchucks in the Great Lakes West standings and 1.5 games back of the Dock Spiders who are in second. There are eight days and nine games remaining for the Mallards in the regular season.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif\">Starting on the mound tonight for the Mallards will be their ace in left-hander Justin Medlin (Arkansas State). Medlin will be making his fourth start and seventh appearance as he\u2019s currently 4-0 on the season with a 1.42 ERA.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif\">For the Woodchucks it will be right-hander Cade Denton (Oral Roberts). Denton will be making his fourth start of the season and his sixth appearance as he currently holds a 4.58 ERA in 17.2 innings pitched.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif\">Despite concerns about the weather, tonight\u2019s game is still currently scheduled to start at 6:35 p.m..
