Triple-A: Norfolk Tides 4, Durham Bulls (TBR) 2
The Tides pitching staff had a good day, led by Tucker Davidson’s strong six innings. The lefty held the Bulls to just two runs, one on a solo home run, the other on an RBI groundout. A rehabbing Danny Coulombe pitched a scoreless inning after him, and so did Brooks Kriske and Bruce Zimmermann, in a closer role. Coulombe’s return to Baltimore can’t come soon enough.
The Tides’ offense didn’t do a ton, but behind Davidson, it was enough. Terrin Vavra knocked in three runs with one swing after a Blake Hunt single and Maverick Handley walk.
