GRAND CHUTE, WI - The Wisconsin Timber Rattlers took an early lead over the Clinton LumberKings Monday night at Neuroscience Group Field at Fox Cities Stadium. Then, the LumberKings erupted for four runs in the third and three runs in the fourth to take control of the game on the way to an 8-3 victory.
Brent Díaz put the Timber Rattlers (51-55 overall, 20-17 second half) up 1-0 with a two-out, RBI single in the bottom of the second inning to score Connor McVey from second base.
Clinton (57-49, 24-14) stormed in front of Wisconsin as they send nine men to the plate and scored four runs in the top of the third inning. The first three hitters in the inning singled with Christopher Torres knocking in the tying run. Kameron Misner put Clinton up 2-1 with a sacrifice fly. Peyton Burdick followed with an RBI double. Evan Edwards capped the inning with an RBI single for a 4-1 lead.
The Rattlers loaded the bases with one out in the bottom of the third inning and got a run on a sacrifice fly by McVey and the Rattlers were down 4-2.
Misner, playing in his first game with the LumberKings, stepped to the plate in the top of the fourth with two runners on base and lined a home run off the foul pole in right field and Clinton was up 7-2.
The LumberKings added one more run in the top of the fourth inning on a run-scoring wild pitch by reliever Reese Olson.
Olson would work a total of four innings in relief for the Rattlers. He struck out eight to set a new single-game high as a professional.
Wisconsin got one more run when Thomas Dillard scored from third on a wild pitch in the bottom of the eighth.
The Rattlers collected eight hits and drew eight walks in the game, but managed to plate just three runs. They were 3-for-14 with runners in scoring position and stranded eleven runners in the contest.
Tanner Anderson was the winning pitcher for Clinton as he scattered six hits and three walks to allow just two runs over six innings.
The loss dropped Wisconsin four games behind the LumberKings in the second half Western Division Wild Card race. The LumberKings moved to within a game of the division-leading Kane County Cougars because the Cougars lost to the Peoria Chiefs on Tuesday night.
