The Tides sent 12 batters to the plate in a six-run first inning, and coasted the rest of the way to an easy win. Their offensive outburst was highlighted by Logan Schafer, who went 4-5 with 2 doubles, and Johnny Giovatella, who was 3-4 with a double and a triple.
Mike Wright had a solid start, allowing two earned runs in 5.2 innings, and the bullpen blanked Louisville the rest of the way. Edwin Jackson made his second appearance of the season and recorded five outs while allowing no hits and one walk.
