There were 17 walks and 27 strikeouts in a sloppy game that came down to Harold Chirino protecting a one-run lead out of the Wisconsin Timber Rattlers bullpen for the final five outs of the game. Chirino did the job and the Timber Rattlers defeated the Peoria Chiefs 3-2 at Dozer Park in Peoriaâs home opener.
Neither starting pitcher gave up a hit, but there were a lot of base runners early in the contest.
Wisconsin starter Freisis Adames pitched four innings, walked five, and struck out four while managing to keep the Chiefs off the scoreboard. Peoria starter Jack Ralston struck out eight and walked three over his first three inning, but it was the two walks his issued in the fourth inning that put him on the hook for the loss.

Bubba Hollins put the Snappers (2-4) in front with a three-run home run in the first inning. Ricky Aracena started the inning with a bunt single and a stolen base and Connor Scott reached on a walk with two outs before Hollins launched a 1-0 pitch over the wall in left for his first home run of the season.
