Notes
Rattlers pitcher Pat Barnes has been sent to Peoria (ARZ) to begin rehabilitation on his pitching shoulder and manager Gary Thurman said he dosen't know when to expect a replacement. Barnes complained of soreness in his arm after his last start, in which he gave up six earned runs in four innings. After missing his appointment to have an MRI in Appleton, Barnes was sent down to the rookie league, and the Rattlers are left with just 11 pitchers on their roster. Most of Wisconsin relievers have been stretched out because of poor outings by starters, so Thurman is hoping to welcome a new arm soon.
