Dayton Dragons News Release
Dayton, OH - The Dayton Dragons have announced that prior to tonight's game against the Wisconsin Timber Rattlers, RHP Matt Klinker has been activated from the disabled list and will get the starting nod in tonight's ballgame. Klinker, a 15th round selection in 2007, was placed on the disabled list on April 3rd, the first day of the regular season. Tonight's game will be the first appearance for the West Chester native in 2008.
To make room for Klinker, LHP Andrew Bowman has been re-assigned to the roster of the Billings Mustangs (extended spring training). Bowman has appeared in just one game for Dayton in 2008, pitching 3.0 scoreless innings in a start against the Great Lakes Loons on April 6th.
