Beasties Whack Suns, 15-2
The Bluff City Beasties stopped the Jacksonville Suns, 15-2, behind an impressive performance from Dante Powell. The 23-year old center fielder made life miserable for Jacksonville pitching. He was 2 for 4 with a home run and 2 walks. He scored 2 runs and drove in 6. Bluff City reliever Dan Serafini was credited with the win, to go to 11-1. Al Levine took the loss for Jacksonville. Bluff City now has a 3-game win streak.

One consequential at-bat came in the top of the first. With the bases loaded, the batter, Jeff Manto, hit a sacrifice fly. It made the score 1-0, Bluff City, and helped them go on to win.

"We took advantage of our opportunities," Manto told the Bluff City Times. "It's as simple as that."
