Nashville Sounds 5, Charlotte Knights 3
The Knights (58-50) and Sounds spent most of the night shadowboxing, but it was Nashville who finally landed the knockout punch. José Urquidy kept things quiet until the third, when the Sounds eked out a run. Charlotte's bats, comatose until the fifth, finally woke up with a Ryan Galanie triple — yes, the first hit of the night. Korey Lee's sac fly tied it, but Urquidy served up a leadoff solo shot in the bottom half, and just like that, Nashville ******* ed the lead right back, 2-1.
Charlotte tried to make some noise in the eighth. Andy Weber doubled, Rikuu Nishida nudged him to third on a ground out, and then Austin Hays delivered with a two-run bomb to left, Knights up 3-2. That joy didn't last very long. Mason Adams, who had been scheduled to start before Urquidy got the call, surrendered three runs in the bottom half. The Knights had one last shot in the ninth with the bases loaded and one out after three consecutive walks. Weber then rolled into a soul-crushing double play.
