 Wisconsin Timber Rattlers

Inclement postpones another Timber Rattlers game

April 19, 2013 - Midwest League (MWL1)
Wisconsin Timber Rattlers News Release


CLINTON, IA - Eight. That would be eight.

Friday's game between the Wisconsin Timber Rattlers and the Clinton LumberKings at Ashford University Field has been postponed due to inclement weather. A brisk wind made the afternoon temperatures in Clinton feel like it was just in the high 20s and snow flurries were flying, too. The weather was only going to get worse and conditions were less than ideal for baseball.

Friday's game was the eighth postponement of the 2013 baseball season for the Timber Rattlers. It was also the third straight day with no baseball for Wisconsin. The last time they were on the field for a game was Tuesday, April 16 when they had a doubleheader at Cedar Rapids.

Wisconsin and Clinton will make up Thursday's postponement in a doubleheader on Saturday at Ashford University Field. Game one begins at 4:00pm.

Friday's weather forces Wisconsin and Clinton to play a doubleheader when the teams meet at Time Warner Cable Field at Fox Cities Stadium later this half. That series will be held May 8 through May 10. The day of that doubleheader will be announced soon.
