APPLETON, Wis. - The Great Lakes Loons (62-49) (28-18) earned their seventh shutout win of the season, a 7-0 beatdown of the Wisconsin Timber Rattlers (50-61) (16-30) on a 72-degree cloudy Saturday night at Neuroscience Group Field.

- In Adam Serwinowski 's first 17 innings with Great Lakes, he has permitted only one run. The left-hander tonight worked around four walks with six strikeouts. After back-to-back walks in the fourth, he gained consecutive punchouts.

- Myles Caba took over for Serwinowski in the sixth. With two on and two out, Luis Castillo singled to left field. Loons left fielder Samuel Munoz fielded it and threw a dart to catcher Carlos Rojas, who tagged out Wisconsin's Marco Dinges to end the inning.

- Great Lakes scored four runs in the sixth. Timber Rattlers starter Ryan Birchard permitted a walk, leaving runners on the corners after Kendall George stole second and third base. Yerlin Rodriguez walked the next two, the second to Zyhir Hope to make it 1-0. Logan Wagner, next up, doubled to left-center to plate two. Wagner gained his 70th RBI this season, the second player in the MWL to 70.

- The fourth run of the sixth was gained on a passed ball. A Wisconsin error aided three tallies for the Loons in the eighth. With two on via walks and two outs, Elijah Hainline singled to right field. A throw from right field was late to the plate. Timber Rattler catcher Marco Dinges tried to back pick Hainline; his throw went into right field, scoring two, including Hainline.

- The Great Lakes bullpen combined for 3.1 scoreless innings. Joel Ibarra punched out two in the eighth, and Nicolas Cruz only needed 10 pitches in the ninth.
