Augusta GreenJackets News Release
Kannapolis, NC: The Augusta GreenJackets, South Atlantic League affiliate of the San Francisco Giants, lost 10-1 to the Kannapolis Intimidators on Thursday night.
The game was tied at zero through the first three innings as Garrett Cave for Augusta and Zach Lewis for Kannapolis battled it out. The game would start to turn towards the Intimidators in the middle innings as they put up 10 runs from the fourth to the sixth inning.
Orleny Quiroz was great in relief over the final 2 1/3 innings for the GreenJackets. He only gave up two hits, while finally shutting down the offense for the Intimidators. Logan Baldwin would knock in the only GreenJackets run with a force out at second that would allow Manuel Geraldo to score from third.
The GreenJackets will be back in action tomorrow at 7:05 pm against the Intimidators.
After the seven game road trip, the GreenJackets will once again be home against the Intimidators. Promotions include our last Thirsty Thursday, along with College Football night. Friday we will have an Auggie Bobblehead giveaway for the first 1,000 fans. Saturday we will have a fireworks show and our SweetWater 90s themed jersey. Then to end the series on Sunday, we will have Bark in the Park!
