(August 5)&nbsp;<\/strong>&ndash; After a pseudo off-day that saw several Madison players shine in Tuesday&rsquo;s 2015 Northwoods League Major League Dreams Showcase at Warner Park, field manager Donnie Scott and the Mallards (19-11, 39-26) will re-direct their focus on Wednesday toward a victory and home sweep of the Alexandria Blue Anchors (16-16, 28-39) at the Duck Pond. Madison has already claimed a spot in the South Division playoffs entering Wednesday, though a victory tonight would help the Mallards maintain possession of the division&rsquo;s second overall seed. First pitch is set for 7:05 p.m.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tBeneficiaries of stellar pitching both in the rotation and bullpen to begin the month of August &ndash; 2.67 ERA, 24:9 strikeout-to-walk ratio across 27 frames as a staff thus far &ndash; field manager Donnie Scott and the Mallards will turn to Brandon White (South Suburban CC) to tab his first starting gig of the summer tonight against the Blue Anchors. White, a 6-foot-2 righty from Chicago, Ill., who was added to Madison&rsquo;s roster in late July, has performed admirably for the Mallards bullpen thus far, ceding just one earned run over five innings (1.80 ERA) with a pair of whiffs and four hits &ndash; all singles.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tWhite will be tasked with slowing a hot-swinging Alexandria roster tonight, one that has managed a .292 batting average and 23 home runs in 32 games since the beginning of July. Third-baseman Trooper Reynolds (Dallas Baptist) has become a key cog in the Blue Anchors lineup since making his Northwoods League debut back on July 18, hitting a team-best .393 with a 1.202 OPS during that span. Ricky Sanchez (Notre Dame) has complimented Reynolds amid Alexandria&rsquo;s upstart offense late this summer, going 3-for-4 with two stolen bases on Monday and slugging .572 overall this season.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tTonight&rsquo;s contest will feature a Charter Communications Team Poster Giveaway, complemented by a Kalahari Resorts Indoor Theme Park Pass Giveaway for the first 500 fans through the gates.
