\n\tAlexandria, MN – June 22, 2014.  The Madison Mallards (14-9) resume play today after not playing the past two days due to record rainfall in Willmar, Minnesota. The team travels to face the Alexandria Blue Anchors (5-20) this afternoon at Knute Nelson Memorial Park in Alexandria, Minnesota. First pitch is scheduled for 1:05 pm. <\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Mallards scheduled doubleheader yesterday against the Willmar Stingers (16-5) was postponed due to unplayable field conditions after <\/span>rainfall in Willmar made the playing surface at Bill Taunton Stadium unplayable. The rescheduled date for the doubleheader is to be determined. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tOn the mound today against the Blue Anchors is righty Christian Taugner (Brown). Taugner has appeared in 20.2 innings for the Mallards this year, carrying a 3.91 ERA in four starts. He gave up two runs on five hits while striking out three, pitching 6.1 innings in his last start against the Wisconsin Woodchucks on June 15th. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tSlated to start for the Blue Anchors is 6’5”, 185-pound righty Jason Zgardowski (Angelo State University). Zgardowski has started five games for the club and holds a 4.36 ERA in 22.2 innings pitched. His last game against the St. Cloud Rox, he went six full innings, giving up two unearned runs on five hits while striking out two. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Mallards finish their two game series against the Blue Anchors tomorrow in Alexandria at 6:35 pm before returning to the “Duck Pond” on Tuesday, June 24th to face the Wisconsin Woodchucks (16-8). <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n
