Rattlers Report Returns

A couple of stories at RattlersReport.com to get you ready for the season:

Guide to Fox Cities Stadium
Someone once said a baseball park is the one place where a man's wife doesn't mind his getting excited over somebody else's curves.

"That's a good one," said Veronica Herzberg, whose own passion for the game began as a teen. It took husband Don, however, a little longer to appreciate baseball.

"I always have been interested in baseball; my whole family was," the 74-year-old Menasha woman said. "I don't think Don liked it as well as I did back then. But now he does."

The Herzbergs have been Wisconsin Timber Rattlers season ticket holders since 1986, back when the team was the Appleton Foxes.

The Wisconsin Timber Rattlers will host its ninth annual Fan Fest from noon to 6 p.m. Tuesday at the newly renamed Time Warner Cable Field at Fox Cities Stadium in Grand Chute. The free event gives fans the opportunity to watch the team practice and play a 3 p.m. scrimmage against Lawrence University. Stadium tours, free hot dogs, soda and popcorn and a chance to get player autographs will highlight the day. The T-Rats will hold its season opener against the Peoria
Chiefs at 6:35 p.m. Thursday.
