Wisconsin Timber Rattlers News Release
GRAND CHUTE, WI - The Wisconsin Timber Rattlers bounced back from a walk-off loss to the Beloit Snappers early on Friday to shutout their in-state rivals 5-0 in the regularly scheduled game at Neuroscience Group Field at Fox Cities Stadium.
Brent DÃaz put the Rattlers (29-31) up 1-0 with a two-out, RBI single in the bottom of the first.
Wisconsin added to their lead in the fourth inning with a two out rally. Brice Turang reached on a single and Jesús Lujano doubled to right-center to get Turang home. In the fifth, Gabriel GarcÃa doubled to start the frame. Kekai Rios moved GarcÃa to third with a flyout. DÃaz got GarcÃa home with a sacrifice fly to right and the Rattlers had a 3-0 lead.
Beloit (22-37) couldn't solve Salaman. The lefty scattered four hits and a walk over five scoreless innings to pick up his fourth win of the season. The Wisconsin defense backed him up with a pair of double plays.
The Timber Rattlers added two more runs with two outs in the bottom of the sixth. Turang and Lujano reached on singles. David Fry roped a single to right to get Turang home and send Lujano to third. A wild pitch let Lujano score.
Robbie Hitt and Michael Mediavilla each worked a scoreless inning out of the bullpen to close out the Snappers.
