\n\tWisconsin Rapids, WI – July 8, 2014. After splitting a two game road series against the Kalamazoo Growers in Kalamazoo, Michigan, the Madison Mallards (5-2, 23-17) return west to square off against the Wisconsin Rapids Rafters (2-3, 14-26) tonight in Wisconsin Rapids at 7:05 pm.<\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tMallards starter Tyler Buffett (Oklahoma State) gets the call against the Rafters after his last start, where gave up two earned runs on seven hits while striking out three in a 6-3 win over the Growlers on June 3rd.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tBuffett carries a 4.15 ERA in 13 innings pitched, having struck out 12 batters while walking only six. The Albuquerque,  New Mexico native will go against Domenic Mazza, a 6’1”, 195-pound lefty out of UC-Santa Barbara.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tMazza has started twice for the Rafters this summer and holds a 1.63 ERA in 11 innings of work, allowing two runs on seven hits while walking seven and striking out 15.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tIn his last start, Mazza tossed six innings of one run ball, giving up three hits and three walks while striking out nine.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tLast night, the Mallards beat the Growlers by a score of 7-4 after scoring four runs in the first inning.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tFirst baseman Pete Alonso (Florida) led the Mallards with two RBI, both coming in the top of the first.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Mallards would add one run in each the fourth, fifth and sixth innings. Seven different Mallards recorded hits, and chipping in offensively was shortstop Trace Tam Sing (Washington State), who tripled, doubled and walked while scoring twice.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tMallards starter Kirby Snead (Florida) held the Growlers to two runs on four hits while striking out five to move to 3-0 on the season.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tMallards closer Tim Black retired one Growlers batter in the bottom of the ninth to receive his 12th save of the year.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Mallards stay in Wisconsin Rapids tomorrow to continue their five game road trip against the Rafters at 7:05 pm. They play two more at Witter Field before returning to the “Duck Pond” on July 11th to face the Rafters at 7:05 pm.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tFriday the 11th will feature a MIG Commercial Real Estate LEGO Building Giveaway. It is also Circus World Night with live circus entertainment and Remington Beard Night.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n
