PEARL, MS - The Montgomery Biscuits (30-21) scored nine unanswered runs in the final three innings of a 13-5 win in the series finale against the Mississippi Braves (23-28) at Trustmark Park. The club took five of six in the series and eight of 12 in the longest road trip of the season.

Dominic Keegan's sacrifice fly scored the Biscuits first run in the fourth to tie the game at 1-1. Nick Schnell homered for a second straight game, an opposite-field, three-run homer that put Montgomery ahead 4-1 in the fourth.

After Brandon Parker homered for a second time to put the M-Braves ahead 5-4 after six innings, Montgomery exploded. The Biscuits ripped off six runs on six singles in the seventh. Chandler Simpson singled in the tying run. Keegan laced a single into right center to score two more, and Tanner Murray's RBI single brought in the sixth run of the frame.

Simpson went 3-for-5 with three singles and his 11th stolen base in 10 Double-A games. Murray went 2-for-5 with a double and two RBI.

The Biscuits added three more in the final two innings, including RBI doubles from Jalen Battles and Murray. The club finished with 18 hits, three short of their season high. Keyshawn Askew picked up his second win with 1 â..." scoreless innings.
