Montgomery Biscuits News Release
MONTGOMERY, Ala. - The Montgomery Biscuits (25-33) cooked up a win against the Mississippi Braves (28-37) as they defeated 7-2 Wednesday night at Riverwalk Stadium. Sound hitting and death by a thousand singles was the story of the night as the Biscuits ended their four-game losing streak.
The Biscuits scored the first batch of their runs in the second inning with a pair of RBI-singles from Tyler Frank and Brett Wisely for Montgomery to take the lead 2-0. In the bottom of the third, Niko Hulsizer added on to the lead with an RBI-single of his own to score Curtis Mead and go up 3-0.
In the sixth, Mississippi took a stab at the lead as CJ Alexander hit a solo home run to center to make it 3-1 Biscuits. In the bottom of the sixth a surprise bunt by Wisley brought Blake Hunt home and took a 4-1 grip over the M-Braves.
In the seventh inning, both teams saw runs scored but the game still remained in the Biscuits favor. M-Braves outfielder Justin Dean reached first on a force out that scored designated hitter Jefrey Ramos and shorten the lead to 4-2. In the bottom of the inning, The Biscuits poured them in starting with a Kameron Misner two-run triple that put the lead back up to four, 6-2. Hulsizer then got his second RBI-single of the night for Misner to score and make it 7-2.
With the game way out of reach for the M-Braves, relief Johan Lopez entered the game to seal the win in front of the home crowd. Although the Biscuits are out of first half playoff berth contention, the win will hopefully bring spark to the club as they continue to try to get back on track.
