It was a big night for Norfolk’s offense. Six Tides had two-hits, including D.J. Stewart, Chance Sisco, and Breyvic Valera. Both of Stewarts hits were doubles. Ruben Tejada also had two doubles, each of which knocked in two runs. Mike Yastrzemski only had a single but he also walked twice from the leadoff spot. What a table setter! The only batter in the lineup without a hit was the recently demoted Joey Rickard.
The Tides needed every one of those nine runs too, thanks to some shaky pitching. Starting pitcher Luis Ysla gave up five runs in just 2.
