This recap belongs solely to three players who are filling our hearts with tons of joy right now and they are: Austin Riley, Adam Duvall, and Alex Jackson. Three MLB caliber bats are all performing at high levels for Gwinnett, with Austin leading the pack, and it’s helping Gwinnett play some really fun baseball. Lets start with Austin Riley.
Austin Riley got the fun started in the first inning by hitting his 11th homer of the season with two outs.
He decided this wasn’t enough as he drew a bases loaded walk in the sixth inning to extend the lead to 6-2, and then homered AGAIN in the eighth inning to extend the Gwinnett lead to 9-2 - a majestic 426’ blast.
