Chris Archer struck out 11 batters and third baseman Trevor Plouffe smacked 2
homeruns and had 3 RBI as the LEXINGTON LEGENDS destroyed the WISCONSIN
TIMBER RATTLERS by a score of 15 to 5 at Minute Maid Park.
 
Plouffe enjoyed a big evening at the plate.  He cleared the fences for a
two-run home run in the 1st inning, cracked a solo homerun in the 4th inning,
singled in the 5th inning and stroked a base-hit in the 9th inning.
LEXINGTON bats were very productive in the 5th inning when they had 4 runs on
4 hits.  The LEXINGTON offense smacked the WISCONSIN pitching staff around,
scoring in 7 of the 9 innings.  
 
Archer(1-0) went 7 and 2/3 innings allowing 5 runs for the victory. Jonathan
Sanchez(0-1) was hit with the loss.  He was touched for 5 homeruns in his 4
and 2/3 innings of work.  
 
Archer was humble when questioned about his performance, 'Well, I felt pretty
confident in my pitches tonight.  But, I had great support behind me and I
just threw what was called.  That was an extremely well called game!'
