He allowed four hits and one earned run. Luke Stewart (UAB) delivered the decisive blow, a 3-run home run to right to give the Mallards a 4-0 lead in the fourth, and Andy Deain (Northern Illinois) and Alex Rivers (Santa Clara) pitched the final three innings to keep the Mallards lead intact. The win moves the Mallards to 12-6 overall and puts them in a tie with La Crosse for second place in the South Division, three games behind division-leading Wisconsin.<\/p>\n<p>Mallards Musings:<br \/>\n-Rob Lyerly (Charlotte) continues his hot hitting.

He is currently on a seven-game hitting streak.<br \/>\n-Matt Jansen (Purdue) continues to pitch well and make a strong case for mid-season all-star honors. In 20 innings pitched over three starts and a relief appearance he has allowed just two earned runs (0.90 ERA). He is 2-0 on the season, and opponents are hitting just .209 against the left-hander.<br \/>\n-Luke Stewart\u2019s third home run of the season on June 17 against Eau Claire puts him in a tie for the most home runs in the league.<br \/>\n-The Mallards offense has been patient at the plate to begin the season, drawing 86 walks in 18 games so far. That ranks third in the Northwoods League.<br \/>\n-The Mallards pitching staff has been stellar so far and is currently fourth in the league with a 2.55 ERA.<br \/>\n-The basepaths have been friendly to the Mallards so far this season. The team currently has an 82% success rate trying to steal (27-33).<br \/>\n-The Mallards will play a their second twin-bill of the season at La Crosse on July 21 to make up for a game that was rained out.<\/p>\n<div id=\"images_news\"> <img class=\"lazyload\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-orig-src=\"http:\/\/www.mallardsbaseball.com\/images\/stories\/site_images\/news\/preview 6-18.jpg\" align=\"left\" width=\"28%\" vspace=\"3\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Madison, WI &#8211; June 18, 2008.
