Pitching Performance

Jayden Dubanewicz, the Rattlers starting pitcher making his Midwest League debut, allowed an unearned run in the top of the fifth but nothing else. His five innings of work on Sunday was his longest outing as a professional. The right-hander walked none and scattered six hits while striking out five to put himself in line for the win.

Braylon Payne provided insurance for the Rattlers with a three-run home run over the Great Lakes bullpen. Payne has twelve homers for Wisconsin this season.

Quinton Low took over for Dubanewicz in the top of the sixth inning and pitched three scoreless, hitless innings with a walk and five strikeouts.

Garrett Hodges pitched a scoreless ninth to close out a series win for the Rattlers, who took four of the six games played in the series. Wisconsin also took the season series from the Loons by winning seven of the eleven meetings.
