VIDEO Feature via WeAreGreenBay.com: David Fry making his mark with the Timber Rattlers

by Lily Zhao

 

Not only does Fry lead the team in home runs now, but he's also tops in the Midwest League with 15 doubles. In fact, he also set a school record for doubles in his 4-year career at Northwestern State.

 

"I think it's just because I'm really, really slow and I can't hit a triple," Fry joked. "I think that's really the only thing. I just try to hit the ball hard and I get lucky sometimes and hit a double."

AUDIO via the Rattler Radio Soundcloud: "Manager Matt Erickson discusses the Timber Rattlers as he sees them in the first half of the season, has a comment of two on each of the six Rattlers selected as 2019 All-Stars, answers a question about someone on the team who has stood out for him this season, talks a bit about the major league debuts of former Rattlers Keston Hiura and Jordan Yamamoto, and a few other things, too."

Victor Castaneda has excelled as a closer for the Timber Rattlers this year

Dan Wussow, Appleton Post-Crescent

 

"Well, the split-finger is plus. His split-finger is a big league pitch, honestly," Pitching Coach Jim Henderson said. "And as a put-away pitch, it's always nice to be able to be a reliever late in the game and eliminate any kind of baserunners with a strikeout, so with the split-finger it's a true strikeout pitch and now he has the velocity on the fastball as well to keep hitters honest. So it's a really nice two-pitch mix right now."

Whitmer discusses his trade to the Brewers (Milwaukee gave up a minimum of $250,000 in international bonus money to acquire him from the Yankees), as well as multiple other topics. Good stuff.
