Bats Fail for Timber Rattlers in 3-1 Loss
The Clinton LumberKings topped the Wisconsin Timber Rattlers, 3-1, in Midwest League action at Neuroscience Feild at Fox Cities Stadium. The standout performance belonged to Clinton pitcher and Maracaibo, Venezuela, native Ismael Acosta. Earning the save was Marlon Lyons. He's now cashed in 5 of 6 save opportunities. The win hiked the Clinton record to 72-52.

Acosta was effective for Clinton, seldom allowing the Timber Rattlers to square up a pitch. The right-hander tossed 96 pitches over 8 innings. He limited Wisconsin to just 1 run on 5 hits.

"I tell our guys all the time, 'Every pitch is the right pitch if you put it in the right place, you believe in it and have conviction,'" Clinton manager Clay Buchholz said.
