The top two teams in the Cincinnati Reds‘ farm system, the Louisville Bats, and Pensacola Blue Wahoos are riding hot streaks of late. The Blue Wahoos have won six straight games and the Bats have as well. Let’s dive into the numbers and check out why these teams are playing so well.
Let’s start with the Blue Wahoos. Cincinnati’s Double-A affiliate has won 6 straight games after dominating the Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp, yes that’s their name, over the weekend. Over the course of the 5-game series, the Blue Wahoos outscored the Shrimp 37-16.
The Blue Wahoos have been led all season by one of the Cincinnati Reds’ top prospects, Shed Long, and the series against Jacksonville was no exception.
