Duffy Helps West Michigan Outscore Wisconsin
The West Michigan Whitecaps welcomed the Wisconsin Timber Rattlers to an night game at Fifth Third Ballpark.

Jim Duffy was a major factor in the 17-10 West Michigan win over Wisconsin. The Whitecaps shortstop went 3-4 with a home run and 2 doubles, while adding 6 RBI and scoring once. The Timber Rattlers, now 7-18, continue their sluggish start.

Dave Miller hit a 3-run home run off Pat Slusher in the bottom of the fourth, which put the Whitecaps ahead, 3-0. In addition to the homer, Miller had 1 double, while going 2 for 5.

"I'm a bit of a clubhouse prankster," said Duffy. "But it's all business when we're on the field."
