Montgomery Biscuits 6, Jacksonville Suns 5

Eduardo Morlan had a rough inning and a third of relief, allowing 3 earned runs. Calvin Medlock came in to preserve the win... Brandon Chaves and Fernando Cortez each hit their first homerun of the year... In the throes of a slump, Desmond Jennings wasn't in the lineup. He came in to play centerfield in the 9th...

Charlotte Stone Crabs off
Notes: Charlotte returns to the field today in Clearwater...

Charleston RiverDogs 4, Bowling Green Hot Rods 1
Box | Recap
Notes: Bowling Green fell to 23-21... Mike Jarman fell to 4-4, but he has victimized by some poor defense. 3 of the 4 runs he allowed were unearned... Tim Beckham was 2-3 with a double and a walk, but he was caught stealing for the 6th time(he only has 1 stolen base)... Mike Sheridan hit his 5th homerun of the year for the Hot Rods' lone run...

Up
Durham Bulls - RHP Winston Abreu: It's a tough comparison, but doesn't Winston Abreu's start kind of remind you of what Grant Balfour did in Durham last year? He's pitched 25.1 innings, allowed 3 earned runs on 8 hits, struck out 37 and walked 8.

Montgomery Biscuits - LHP Jason Cromer: He's been a really solid starter for Durham and Montgomery, tossing 7 innings and allowing just 1 run yesterday.

Bowling Green Hot Rods - SS Tim Beckham: His 5th consecutive multi-hit game. He is now 11 for his last 20 with three walks.

Down
Durham Bulls - 1B Alex Jamieson: Only Bulls starter without a hit.

Montgomery Biscuits - 1B Rhyne Hughes: Got the hat trick, striking out three times as part of an 0-5 night.

Bowling Green Hot Rods - 3 & 4 in the order: Jake Jefferies and Kyeong Kang each went 0-4..
