4/28 @ Cedar Rapids
Hawks trying for the sweep tonight in Cedar Rapids. Kernels as a team have combined for just six hits through the first two games of the series.
Even colder today than it was yesterday. Not as windy, though.
We leave Cedar Rapids after the game and make the short trip to Davenport, Iowa.

4/17 @ Lansing Game Notes
The Lugnut top ranked pitching staff (2.02 ERA through 11 games) was as advertised last night, as was Archie Bradley, who tallied a career-high eight strikeouts over five no-hit innings. A combination of four Lugnuts pitchers merged to strikeout 16, including eight in a row at one point late in the game. Archie struck out seven of the final 11 he faced and was particularly strong the second time through the order for a second straight start. Archie now has 22 strikeouts over 16 innings.
Tonight Jeff Shields vies for his first win of 2012 after looking razor sharp last week against Dayton.
It’s another cold and breezy day in Lansing. Just stepped outside and the temperature was in the upper 40s. Should bode well for the pitchers tonight.

4/13 vs. DAY
Hawks playing pretty good baseball right now, winners of 4-of-5 and 3-of-4 at The Cove. Jeff Shields had good sink last night, and the slider was working. He’ll be an important part of the equation this season and it was encouraging to see him “click” last night. Offensively it wasn’t pretty, but offense is down all around the league (league BA is .237) as is typical in April.
Game 2-of-4 tonight versus Dayton:
Game #8
Silver Hawks (4-3) vs. Dayton Dragons (2-5)
SB: LHP John Pedrotty DAY: LHP Tanner Robles

I’m working on a feature piece with third baseman Matt Helm. If finished it will play in the middle of the 5th inning.
The top of the 5th inning will be our trivia inning. Correct answers will enter into a drawing for a $10 gift card to TGI Fridays. Email answers to silverhawkstrivia@yahoo.com and tlucian@silverhawks.com, or tweet your answer to @radiohawks.
