It was an impressive showing for a trio of pitchers that have bounced between the big leagues and the minors this season. Rico Garcia got the start and tossed three shutout innings while striking out four. Louis Head followed with two strikeouts over his two scoreless innings. And finally it was Logan Gillaspie with three more zeros. Across all eight innings the Norfolk pitchers allowed just three hits and one walk in total.
There wasn’t much offense to discuss. The Tides offense only had three hits themselves, and they were all rather spread out. Their lone run came in the eighth inning as a result of the Manfred runner starting the inning at second base.
