NFL delays schedule release a week

The National Football League is bucking its recent trend and holding off on releasing its 2024 schedule.

While the schedule is short on details, some things are known about the Packers' 2024 slate. The Packers will host Chicago, Detroit, Minnesota, Arizona, San Francisco, Houston, Indianapolis, New Orleans, and Miami while visiting Chicago, Detroit, Minnesota, L.A. Rams, Seattle, Jacksonville, and Tennessee. Another "road game" will occur against Philadelphia in Brazil on September 6th. 


Bats Rally and Defense Secures Wisconsin Victory

The Wisconsin Timber Rattlers scored three runs in the top of the seventh inning to take a 5-3 lead over the Quad Cities River Bandits Wednesday night at Modern Woodmen Park.  The Bandits got close, but another flawless performance by the Rattlers defenders put the 5-4 decision in the win column.

 

Wisconsin (19-10) took a 1-0 lead in the top of the first inning.  Gregory Barrios and Luke Adams had consecutive doubles with two outs to give the Rattlers a run.

Jadher Areinamo made a sweet defensive play to end the bottom of the first inning and started the top of the second by stretching a routine single into a double.  Tayden Hall moved Areinamo to third with a ground out.  Eduarqui Fernández drove in Areinamo with another ground out for a 2-0 lead.


Patricio Aquino, the Wisconsin starting pitcher, was cruising through 3-2/3 inning before struggling to find the final out of the fourth.  He hit Jared Dickey on a 1-2 pitch and walked Dustin Dickerson on a 3-2 pitch.  Aquino went to a full count on Jack Pineda before Pineda singled to right to get Dickey home to score the River Bandits first run.

Quad Cities (17-12) took the lead in the bottom of the fifth inning against reliever Mark Manfredi.  The Wisconsin left-hander walked the lead-off hitter, struck out the next two batters, and was 1-2 to Brett Squires.  However, Squires lined a home run to right and gave the Bandits a 3-2 advantage.

Ben Kudrna, the River Bandits starting pitcher, worked around a one-out single in the top of the sixth inning and turned the 3-2 lead over to his bullpen for the seventh.

Brandon Johnson took over for the Bandits.  The right-hander had made nine appearances with three walks and 25 strikeouts over twelve scoreless innings before Wednesday.  The Timber Rattlers were not fazed by this information.

Areinamo started the inning with a single.  Tayden Hall walked.  Then, Fernández snapped an 0-for-14 slide with a bloop single to left to load the bases.

Terence Doston was next, and he sent a fly ball to deep center.  All three runners tagged to move up a base with Areinamo scoring the tying run.  Luis Lara lined the next pitch down the line in left for a two-run double and a 5-3 Wisconsin lead.

Squires took Manfredi deep again in the eighth inning.  This time it was a lead-off homer to cut Wisconsin’s lead to a single run.  Aaron Rund took over for Manfredi after the home run and retired the next three batters to send the game to the ninth with the Rattlers up 5-4.

Yerlin Rodriguez was called in to close the game in the bottom of the ninth.  The hard-throwing righty got the first out, but gave up a bloop single to Omar Hernandez, the number nine batter in the Bandits lineup, to bring the winning run to the plate with the top of the order.  Then, the Timber Ratters defense took over the game to secure the victory.

Carson Roccaforte lined a 1-0 pitch to the gap in right-center that looked to be a game-tying extra-base hit.  Fernández raced back, reached up, and pulled in the ball with a back-handed catch for the second out.

Carter Jensen was the last chance for the River Bandits.  He sent a grounder up the middle.  Dylan O’Rae flagged down the ball on the outfield grass and fired to Barrios covering second to just get Hernandez with the force play for the final out.

The Timber Rattlers have played six consecutive errorless games.  The have only been charged with two errors in their last twelve games.

 

Game three of the series is Thursday night at Modern Woodmen Park.  Will Rudy (1-1, 4.58) is the scheduled starting pitcher for the Timber Rattlers.  Steven Zobac (1-1, 3.52) is set to start for the River Bandits.  Game time is 6:30pm.

Soccer Roundup: Sturgeon Bay, Peshtigo play to 0-0 tie in shortened match

Area high school soccer players were able to squeeze in at least half an hour of action on a wet Tuesday night.

The Sturgeon Bay Clippers and the Peshtigo Bulldogs battled through 35 minutes in a downpour only to have the scoreless game called at the half due to field conditions. In what was shaping up to be a conference showdown, Mother Nature made the final call.... 0-0 at the half, and the game was called by the referees with water gathering on the field in a heavy downpour.  Sturgeon Bay was looking to take the game to even the series with Peshtigo, but that will have to wait until next season or the regional matchups still to be determined. Next up for the Clippers is another conference match at host The United Team (Sevastopol/Gibraltar) on Thursday.

Brewers rally to beat Royals

Down to their last strike and trailing 5-3 in the ninth inning, the Milwaukee Brewers rallied to top the Kansas City Royals 6-5 on Tuesday night.

 

Willy Adames’ three-run home run in the top of the ninth helped the Brewers snap a three-game losing streak and pull out an unexpected comeback against the Royals.

 

William Contreras lined a double off Kansas City reliever James McArthur to start the rally in the ninth.  After a walk to Gary Sanchez, Adames smashed a long home run over the left field fence that propelled the Brewers to a much needed victory.

 

Trevor Megill came on for his third save of the season with a 1-2-3 bottom of the ninth.

The Brewers took an early 2-0 lead on back-to-back home runs by Rhys Hoskins and Joey Ortiz in the second inning, only to see the Royals score four runs in the fifth to take a 4-2 lead.

 

Each team scored a run in the seventh innings, before Adames’ dramatic homer in the ninth.

 

The Brewers (21-14) and Royals (21-16) will play a matinee game in Kansas City to close out the series with a 1:10 p.m. first pitch scheduled.  Joe Ross (1-3) will get the start for Milwaukee while Brady Singer (2-1) will go for the Royals. 

Rattlers top Quad Cities

Three Wisconsin Timber Rattlers pitchers combined for fourteen strikeouts and held the Quad Cities River Bandits to three hits on Tuesday Night at Modern Woodmen Park.  Jadher Areinamo drove in two runs early to give Wisconsin the lead and the Rattlers offense added two insurance runs in the fifth inning for a 4-1 victory.

 

Carson Roccaforte gave the River Bandits (17-11) a 1-0 lead with a lead-off home run in the bottom of the first inning.

The Rattlers (18-10) responded in the top of the second.  Luke Adams walked to start the inning and moved to second on a ground out.  Areinamo cracked an 0-2 pitch up the middle for a single to score Adams with the tying run.

 

Wisconsin took the lead without a hit in the top of the fourth.  Dylan O’Rae and Adams were both hit by pitches to start the inning.  Areinamo stepped to the plate with runners at second and third and one out and knocked in O’Rae from third with a grounder to short for a 2-1 lead.

Adams has been hit by a pitch in six consecutive games.

The Rattlers added to their advantage in the fifth inning.  Jheremy Vargas drew a walk with one out.  Luis Lara doubled to the gap in right-center to score Vargas.  The throw home missed the cutoff man and Lara took third on the play.  The River Bandits brought their infield to the edge of the grass and Gregory Barrios took advantage by shooting a grounder through the left side of the infield to get Lara home for a 4-1 lead.

 

Tate Kuehner, the Wisconsin starting pitcher, settled down after the lead-off homer in the first.  That was the only hit he allowed over four innings.  Kuehner walked three and struck out six as he turned the ball and the lead over to the Wisconsin bullpen.

Tyler Wehrle was the first reliever for the Timber Rattlers, and he worked two scoreless innings with a walk, a hit, and a strikeout.  Wehrle ended his night by getting Brett Squires to ground into an inning-ending 4-6-3 double play in the sixth inning.

Craig Yoho was the next bullpen arm for Wisconsin.  He was also the final bullpen arm the Rattlers would need in the game.  Yoho pitched three scoreless innings with seven strikeouts to earn his fourth save of the season.  He retired the first eight batters he faced before giving up a two-out hit in the ninth.  Yoho regrouped and struck out Kale Emshoff looking to end the game. 

Three innings and seven strikeouts are new single-game highs as a pro for Yoho.

Wisconsin’s defense played flawless defense again.  The Rattlers have played error-free defense in five straight games.  They have been charged with two errors in their last eleven games.

It's still very early in the first half, but Tuesday’s victory put the Timber Rattlers in first place in the West Division of the Midwest League by one game over the River Bandits

 

Game two of the series is scheduled for Wednesday evening at Modern Woodmen Park.  Patricio Aquino (1-2, 7.56) is the scheduled starting pitcher for the Timber Rattlers.  The River Bandits have named Ben Kudrna (2-2, 2.45) as their starter.  Game time is 6:30pm.

Great Lakes Gets Late Runs to Beat Wisconsin

The Wisconsin Timber Rattlers got out to a fast start, but the Great Lakes Loons caught Wisconsin in the middle innings and scored two late runs to edge the Rattlers 5-3 in the series finale at Neuroscience Group Field at Fox Cities Stadium on Sunday afternoon.

 

Both teams had lead-off doubles in the first inning. 

Alex Freeland started the Loons half of the first with a double and he went to third on a wild pitch with one out.  Wisconsin starting pitcher Edwin Jimenez stranded Freeland at third when he struck out the final two batters of the inning.

Luis Lara doubled to start the Wisconsin first.  Dylan O’Rae sent a grounder to third with one out, but the throw to first was wild.  Lara scored and O’Rae went to second on the play.  Jadher Areinamo added to the lead with a two-out, RBI single to center.

The Timber Rattlers (17-10) have outscored opponents 33-14 in the first inning this season.

Jimenez retired twelve straight Loons after the double by Freeland.  Chris Newell snapped that streak and the shutout with a long home run to right to start the top of the fifth inning.   The home run was Newell’s sixth of the season.  It was also the eighth home run by the Loons in the series.

Ram?n Rodríguez just missed a home run to start the Wisconsin half of the fifth.  The Rattlers catcher cracked a double off the very top of the wall by the Great Lakes bullpen.  O’Rae cashed in the opportunity with a two-out hit to left for a 3-1 lead.

The Loons (18-9) got Jimenez in trouble right away in the top of the sixth inning.  Jake Vogel singled and Freeland followed with an RBI double.  Jimenez got the first out of the inning on a grounder to the right side of the infield that allowed Vogel to take second.  Then, Thayron Liranzo drew a walk to put runners on the corners.

Kyle Nevin hit a deep drive to center and Lara made a great running catch for the second out.  However, Vogel was able to tag and score from third to tie the game on the play.

The eighth inning was a roller coaster for both teams. 

In the top of the eighth, Jake Vogel started the frame with a double but was thrown out trying to steal third base for the first out.  Wisconsin reliever Chase Costello walked the next two batters, including a close 3-2 pitch that was called a ball to Noah Miller.  Liranzo blooped the next pitch to left for an RBI single and the Loons had their first lead of the game.

In the bottom of the eighth, the first two Rattlers reached base.  Gregory Barrios started with a single and Dylan O’Rae followed with a walk to put the tying and lead runs on base against reliever Christian Suarez.

Suarez ran the count full to Luke Adams, who grounded into a 6-4-3 double play.  Suarez got Areinamo to end the inning and strand Barrios at third with the tying run.

The Loons added an insurance run on the top of the ninth against Stiven Cruz and it was Freeland…again.  The Loons lead-off hitter singled with two outs for the run to give Great Lakes a 5-3 lead.

Lucas Wepf set down the Rattlers in order in the ninth for his second save of the series.

Freeland was 3-for-4 with a walk, a stolen base, two doubles, two runs scored, and two RBI for the Loons.  Great Lakes won four of the six games in the series to hand Wisconsin its first series loss of 2024.

 

The Timber Rattlers are off on Monday.  They return to action on Tuesday with a series against the Quad Cities River Bandits at Modern Woodmen Park in Davenport, Iowa.  Wisconsin and Quad Cities are both 17-9 and tied at the top of the Midwest League’s West Division entering the six-game set.

Tate Kuehner (0-1, 7.36) is the scheduled starting pitcher for Wisconsin on Tuesday.  The River Bandits have not announced their starter.  Game time is 6:30pm.

Clippers soccer sweeps weekend matches

The Sturgeon Bay Clippers won a pair of soccer matches this weekend, routing Valders 8-0 on Friday before beating Wausau East 3-1.

 

VALDERS

Sturgeon Bay's Alexis Olson scored a hat trick on Friday night leading the team to an 8-0 win over a short handed Valders team.  Valders had only 12 players as 6 were still at school and participating in the school's musical.  Also scoring for the Clippers were Malaya Martinez (2 goals) and Yarrow Goettelmann (2 goals).  The final goal was an own goal off a deflection from a Valders defender.

 

The team finally found some offensive rhythm in this game making 7 of 16 shots on goal plus the keeper for Valders had 5 saves too.  This was the focus of our game plan and finding success scoring bodes well for our conference games next week. 

 

WAUSAU EAST

Finally stringing two wins in a row together, Sturgeon Bay turned a first half tie into a solid win with two second half goals.  Malaya Martinez scored in the 28th minute after which Wausau East scored in the 33rd minute.  A stingy Sturgeon Bay defense would not allow a shot on goal the entire second half while Alexis Olson found the back of the goal in the 66th minute putting Sturgeon Bay back on top 2-1. Late in the game at the 78th minute, Milan Eliyha scored the dagger off a corner kick and the 3-1 win.  This was a hard fought win for the Clippers who face conference rival Peshtigo next Tuesdays at Clark Field in Sturgeon Bay.
