Montgomery Biscuits News Release


PENSACOLA, Flo. - The Biscuits (48-38) fell behind in the first inning and never recovered in a 5-2 loss to the Pensacola Blue Wahoos (44-43) on Thursday night at Blue Wahoos Stadium.

Zach McCambley (1-4) started on the hill for the Blue Wahoos, and the right-hander sat the Biscuits down in order in top of the first, striking out lead-off hitter Xavier Edwards. Jack Labosky made his fifth start on the mound for Montgomery, and the righty allowed four hits in the bottom of the first, including a two-run home run to Jerar Encarnacion, which sailed over the batter's eye in straightaway center and made it 2-0 Pensacola.

McCambley struck out two more batters in the second and remained perfect through two. Labosky settled down in the second, striking out his second batter, in a scoreless frame. McCambley walked Moises Gomez in the third, but also struck out his fifth batter, keeping the Biscuits off the board, and hitless.

Labosky notched a season-high sixth strikeout in the bottom of the fourth, but also surrendered a two-run homer to right off the bat of JJ Bleday, who doubled Pensacola's lead to 4-0. McCambley tallied his eighth strikeout in a one-two-three fifth, keeping the no-hitter intact.

McCambley was lifted for Zack Leban in the sixth when Edwards knocked a one-out single into right-center to end the combined no-hit effort. Bleday's sac fly off Jordan Brink in the sixth made it a 5-0 game before Ford Proctor crushed a two-run homer over the batter's eye in straightaway center to finally get the Biscuits on the board at 5-2 in the seventh.

Joel Peguero worked a couple of clean innings, striking out three between the seventh and eighth, but Colton Hock came on for Pensacola in the ninth and locked up his 13th save with a one-two-three inning to seal the win. The Biscuits are now just 2-7 in Pensacola this season.

The Biscuits will try to rebound on Friday when Jayden Murray (1-1) goes up against Jake Eder (3-5) at 6:35 PM CT.

The Biscuits will return to Riverwalk Stadium for a six-game series against the Mississippi Braves starting on a Golden Biscuits Tuesday, on August 17 at 6:35 PM CT.

The rest of the first series will include a Military Wednesday presented by WOW! on Wednesday, August 18; Aviation Night with a T-Shirt Giveaway on Thursday, August 19; Princess Night - Celebrating Classic Movie Princesses on Friday, August 20; Outdoor Alabama Hunting & Fishing Night presented by Department of Conservation & Natural Resources with MAX Fireworks on Saturday, August 21; and Lil' Crumbs Kids Club presented by Go Fish Alabama & Bark in the Park on Sunday, August 22.
