Kind of a sad day for the farm teams

Miller goes an inning giving up 5 runs and still has a game score of 25? Wow that is kind of messed up. Whoever was pitching for Jacksonville should be proud. Only giving up one runs to the stars lineup is impressive.

Wow...

How do you surrender 15 baserunners in under 6 innings and still run up only 4 ER? Of course Howard still ended up with the loss so I guess it doesn’t matter much.

Vinny

He’s lucky he’s in Nashville, otherwise he’d have to spread that 21 game hitting streak over an entire season.

His wallet, not so lucky.

Coffee is for closers

Turnbow

has not pitched since June 5 I believe. His future continues to dim.

The Wallbangers won because they played the game like kids! Let's do that again!!!

Not sure

what is going on with him. For the past couple of weeks, the Sounds have been using him as a starter, have him go two innings and then pulling him. I guess that way he can pitch every few days (instead of being on call every day) and throw on the side in between to work on his mechanics. But if he hasn’t pitched since last Thursday, the team could have changed their tack with him. Or he could be hurt.
