After a 0-3 record and 10.97 ERA in Milwaukee, the Brewers sent Hellweg to the Fox
Johnny Hellweg
Cities and he bounced back with a solid 6-inning performance with the Class A Wisconsin Timber Rattlers.
Hellweg worked 6-innings, allowed 2-runs on 6-hits with 4-strikeouts in the Timber Rattlers 6-2 win over Lake County on Sunday.
Hellweg will now get a few days off with the all-star break to spend time with family before his next assignment. That could mean a return to Milwaukee, or it could mean more appearances at one of the Brewers farm clubs.
Wisconsin Timber Rattlers manager Matt Erickson thought Hellweg performed well in his 6-inning stint.
