Nashville was victorious in Mark DiFelice's first start since 2008. They also turned the first PCL triple play of 2011: 6-3, Maysonet to Gamel. I know most of us are used to DiFelice being a righty specialist, but he's been a starter for the majority of his minor league career.
Cody Scarpetta hit a 2-run homer to aid in the defeat of the Smokies by the Stars. In other pitcher news, Austin Ross gave up 8 hits in the Timber Rattlers' loss. That and more after the jump.
