It was a very bad night for Norfolk’s offense, whose final runner reached based in the third inning. After a one-out Jordan Westburg walk, 20 consecutive Tides made outs. Their only run came in the first inning when Gunnar Henderson singled, moved to second on walk by Kyle Stowers, and scored on a single from Jacob Nottingham. Shayne Fontana singled to lead off the second, the Tides’ final hit.
The Red Wings’ starting pitcher, Cade Cavalli, is the number two prospect in the Nationals’ system and #43 in the MLB Pipeline Top 100. He struck out 11 Tides in his seven innings of work.
