Reports from the desert

Late yesterday, I was pointed to Brewerfan.net for reports on minor league spring training games from Arizona.

Before I do this, keep in mind that players on the spring training roster for the Timber Rattlers will not necessarily be on the Opening Day roster.

Here is where the thread starts.

Pulling out details on games marked Timber Rattlers:

Box score of an 11-2 win over Great Lakes.

Brief write up by Mass Haas:

The Timber Rattlers picked up their first spring win in convincing fashion, pounding the Great Lakes Loons, 11-2. Brock Kjeldgaard led the Timber Rattlers' balanced attack with two hits, including a triple. Mike Marseco, Erik Komatsu, and Kjeldgaard each scored twice for Wisconsin. On the pitching side, Kris Dabrowiecki, Liam Ohlmann, and Nick Tyson all posted scoreless outings.

Boxscore of an 8-2 loss to Cedar Rapids.

Writeup from Mass Haas:

Wisconsin dropped its spring opener, 8-2, to the Cedar Rapids Kernels. Cody Scarpetta was the bright spot on the pitching side, tossing 2.2 innings of scoreless relief. Erik Miller collected two hits, including a double, to lead the Timber Rattlers offense.

Boxscore of a 9-8 loss to Cedar Rapids.

MH writeup:

Cedar Rapids edged Wisconsin, 9-8. Wisconsin's seven errors played a large role in the close loss. The T-Rats offense was solid, pounding out 14 hits. Michael Vass collected three hits, while Erik Miller, Brett Lawrie, and Derrick Alfonso each had two.

According to the next post, the Timber Rattlers played the Lake County Captains Monday. Details to follow.
