Mallards at the Duck Pond

Warner Park

Warner Park

We went to a Mallards game on Friday and watched the “Ducks” post a 6-3 win over their rival, the Battle Creek (Michigan) Bombers. Over six thousand friendly fans crowded the ballpark on a hot, muggy evening, and everyone enjoyed the game as they cheered lots of hot hitting and decent pitching.

The Madison Mallards play Northwoods League baseball at Warner Park on the northeast side of Madison. They’ve been playing great ball lately, on a four game winning streak, and the games make for a great summer outing. The Mallards will be playing out of town this week, but return to the “Duck Pond’ on Saturday, July 26th, to play against the Waterloo Bucks. It will be William Hung American Idol Karaoke Night and after the ballgame there will be a fireworks display.

And if you are a collector of bobbleheads, check out the ball game on Tuesday, July 29. Maynard G. Mallard Bobbleheads will be presented to the first 1000 fans. More information about Mallard Baseball, including ticket orders, can be found at the Mallards’ website.

Other Wisconsin teams in the league include the Eau Claire Express, Green Bay Bullfrogs, LaCrosse Loggers and Wisconsin Woodchucks from Wausau.
