Midwest League Action (8/29)

August 29 scoreboard.

Wisconsin 6, @Quad Cities 2:
It wasn’t exactly the view Terry Pollreisz preferred, but the Wisconsin manager wasn’t complaining.

Pollreisz watched his Timber Rattlers put together a four-run eighth inning Friday night from a seat in the Modern Woodmen Park dugout, nursing a heel injury he suffered earlier in Wisconsin’s 6-2 Midwest League win over the Quad-Cities River Bandits.

“You know it’s been a tough night when the third-base coach limps off,’’ Pollreisz said. “I liked the outcome, though, but I also knew at that point that it felt a lot better sitting down than it did standing up.’’

Pollreisz left the field under his own power in the top of the sixth inning, suffering the injury in the third-base coaching box as he tried to position himself to wave Joe Dunigan on to third as the Rattlers successfully executed a hit and run.
@South Bend 5, Lansing 2: "I would have liked to have seen some better at-bats later in the game," South Bend manager Mark Haley said.

West Michigan 5, @Dayton 0: "It's just one day," said Dragons manager Donnie Scott. "They've been going full blast for awhile. I wanted to give them a rest. There was no better time to do it than all in one day."

Fort Wayne 5, @Great Lakes 2: "Miller pitched two good quality innings and then in the third, he threw a lot of balls," said Loons' manager Juan Bustabad. "Thompson gave us five quality innings, but threw one bad pitch, a home run by Felix Carrasco. He should have pitched around him."

@Kane County 6, Peoria 3: The Peoria Chiefs lost their sixth straight contest with a 6-3 defeat at Kane County Friday night to begin the season’s final series.

@Beloit 6, Burlington 4: Marc Dolenc ripped a two-run triple in the seventh inning and the Beloit Snappers went on to post their third straight victory, 6-4 over the Burlington Bees Friday night at Pohlman Field.

Clinton 2, @Cedar Rapids 1: If familiarity breeds contempt, these clubs ought to absolutely hate each other by the time next weekend rolls around.
