Ready for Miller Park

Today is the day!

Wisconsin Timber Rattlers look forward to game at Miller Park in Milwaukee

"It's going to be great, a great experience, great for all of us," said Rattlers right-hander Damon Krestalude, tonight's starter. "This is what we're striving for. We're playing here, but we're striving to get to Miller Park."

The club is scheduled to arrive in Milwaukee around noon. Included in a busy itinerary is a full major-league style lunch spread and a stadium tour before the team gets in its typical pregame work.

"It's about the dream," Isom said. "It's kind of like the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. This is what we're working for. This gives them a little bit of a taste of what's to come. You go through the process of the minor league, and at times it gets long and tiresome. But it just shows them, 'Here's what you're playing for.'

$10 tickets remain. See you at the game.
