Sounds Jump out to Early Lead, Hold off Redbirds

Another day, another slugfest between the top two teams in the standings. After losing Tuesday, the Sounds flipped the scoreboard on Wednesday, while both teams stayed hot at the plate with 28 total hits and six home runs.

Jett Williams followed up his two-homer game with his ninth home run of the season (108.5 MPH exit velo) on a 1-5 night.

Akil Baddoo added two home runs, proving that he can hit them against teams other than the Durham Bulls. In 88 PAs for Nashville this season, Baddoo is sporting a .955 OPS with six home runs, giving the Brewers the roster depth that he was brought in to provide.

Jefferson Quero hit three singles following his home run yesterday. Greg Jones and Ethan Murray also added three hits apiece with a double for each.

Rehabbing Jared Koenig got the win, giving up two hits, a walk and one earned run while striking out two.

Adamczewski, Fischer Drive in Runs in Double-A Debuts, Shuckers Fall to Clingstones - New Shuckers Shine in Loss to Clingstones

Welcome to Double-A Andrew Fischer! Fischer hit a home run in his first AA at-bat. Stay hot!

Josh Adamczewski also got a hit in his first game with Biloxi, ripping a double to the wall in left center.

Unfortunately, Adamczewski collided with Jesús Made in the sixth inning and Made exited the game with a left quad contusion. (video of collision posted with story)

Catcher Matthew Wood went 1-3 with a double and now has an .841 OPS on the season. Quietly having a solid year, Wood sports a walk rate above 20 percent, almost double his 11.7 percent strikeout rate.

After pitching a clean six innings last week, Tanner Gillis gave up four earned runs and two homers this week.

Josh Knoth took another step forward, setting a season high for innings with 4.2 and strikeouts with seven. Knoth gave up two runs but only allowed 3 hits, one walk and no home runs.
