The pitching was a little shaky for Norfolk, but the bats bailed them out big-time, with a six-run explosion in the 8th. Stevie Wilkerson blasted a three-run homer in that inning and finished 2-for-4. Anderson Feliz contributed with a two-run double on a 1-for-4 night. Ryan Mountcastle bounced back in a big way this game, going 3-for-4 and finishing just a triple short of hitting for the cycle. D.J. Stewart and Anthony Santander both had 0-for-3 nights.
Keegan Akin had a somewhat shaky start, giving up four runs (three earned) on four hits, with 3 walks and 5 strikes.
