Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp - Double-A

On a positive note, Mike Kickham threw six shutout innings for Jacksonville for a Game Score of 64; catcher Cam Maron had two hits, and shortstop Alex Yarbrough hit in his tenth straight game.

Jupiter Hammerheads - Single-A Advanced

Bradenton Marauders 5 @ Jupiter Hammerheads 1

The Hammerheads fell behind early today, as Ben Holmes gave up three runs in the third and another run in the fourth. Holmes lasted on 3 2/3 tonight. Travis Ballew came out of the pen and struggled mightily with control, going only 2/3 of an inning while walking six batters.

Things settled down as the next three relievers threw 4 2/3 of scoreless ball to keep the game close, but the game was already out of reach. A single by Brian Schales accounted for Jupiter’s only run.

T: 2:54

The middle of the lineup did the most damage; as the 3-4-5 hitters all had three hits apiece. James Nelson and Colby Lusignan each hit long balls for the Hoppers, with Lusignan responsible for 4 RBIs.

On the mound, Michael King had possibly his best game of the year, going seven shutout innings while giving up only two hits for a Game Score of 78.
