\n\t\"WuethrichMadison, Wis. <\/strong>– After claiming their fifth-straight victory to open up the 2015 Northwoods League season Sunday in Wisconsin Rapids, the Madison Mallards on Monday will make a quick turnaround to Mequon, Wis., for the opener of a two-game series with the Lakeshore Chinooks. First pitch is scheduled for 11:35 a.m. from Kapco Park.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tMallards field manager Donnie Scott has named Westin Wuethrich (Madison College) as the Mallards starter for today’s opener. Wuethrich, a Greenwood, Wis., native, went 6-2 with a 2.73 ERA across 12 starts (69.1 IP) during his sophomore collegiate campaign this spring, holding batters to a .209 average with 57 strikeouts and just one home run allowed.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tTo counter, the Chinooks will send Gavin Downs (Purdue) to the hill for his second start of the season. Downs, a 6-foot-0  right-handed pitcher originally from Fort Wayne, Ind., ceded one earned run over six innings in his first start of the summer. As a junior with the Boilermakers this spring, he went 5-4 with a 6.60 ERA over 61.1 frames.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tTschida to the Rescue: <\/strong>Chris Tschida (Western Illinois) recorded his third consecutive multi-hit game Sunday afternoon, going 2-for-5 with a double and two runs batted in. Coming into today’s game, Tschida’s seven runs batted in tie for second-most in the league, six of which have come with two outs and runners in scoring position.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tAlone at the Top: <\/strong>The Mallards enter today’s road matchup with a 1.5 game lead in the South Division, much ado to their stellar combination of hitting and pitching. As a unit, Madison holds true to the highest batting average (.294) and lowest earned run average (1.80) in the league and have out-scored their opponents 43-12 through five games.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Mallards will return to the Duck Pond on Wednesday, June 3 against the Green Bay Bullfrogs on Joey's Song Epilepsy Awareness Night. There will be a pre-game skydiving and tandem skydive giveaway presented by Great Lakes Skydiving, with Mallards players wearing purple jerseys to be auctioned off during the game.\n<\/p>\n
