Report from the Desert

Here is the Brewerfan.net report on a Thursday Spring Training game between the Wisconsin Timber Rattlers and the Lake County Captains. Lake C0unty is the South Atlantic League affiliate of the Cleveland Indians. The Captains will be joining the Midwest League in 2010.

Wisconsin edged Lake County, 6-5. Young southpaw Efrain Nieves gave the Timber Rattlers a fine start, posting three perfect innings, striking out five. Carlos George, Erik Miller, and Edgar Trejo each collected two base hits. Cody Adams struggled with control issues in his one inning; the other five Wisconsin pitchers struck out 16 and walked only one in their eight innings of work.

If there is a post on Friday's game before I'm done updating, I'll post a link to it.
