PEORIA, IL â The Wisconsin Timber Rattlers looked great building a 7-0 lead through 2-1/2 innings at Dozer Park on Wednesday night against the Peoria Chiefs. They took a 7-1 lead into the bottom of the seventh. Then, errors, walks, and other miscues let the Chiefs back into the game and Peoria eventually celebrated a 9-8 win in ten innings over the Rattlers.
Wisconsin (5-3) took the early lead with three runs in the first inning. Korry Howell started the game with a single and David Hamilton followed with a single to put runners on the corners. Gabriel GarcÃa was next and he drove in Howell with a single to center for a 1-0 lead.
