Both the Bowie Baysox and the Delmarva Shorebirds were off yesterday, but we still had three games on the docket thanks to a Frederick Keys doubleheader.
Norfolk Tides 16, Gwinnett Braves 9
The Tides and Braves had an old-fashioned slugfest last night with the Tides prevailing thanks to 16 runs on 16 hits and eight walks. They knocked two home runs, one each from Pedro Alvarez and David Washington. That home run was part of a three-hit day for both players. Every starter in the game had at least one hit, including Chance Sisco who was 1-for-4 with a walk.
