Currently, the Wood Ducks are third in all of MiLB with 124 stolen bases on the season. Jayce Easley (30), Luisangel Acuña (18), and Dustin Harris (15) lead the way for the Wood Ducks as their three primary and best base stealers.

GETTING WARMER: After a strong finish to the month of June for the pitching staff, they've started off the month of July rather cold. Although they've played only four games in the month of July, the pitching staff is currently 2-4 with a 7.02 ERA but they have tallied 48 strikeouts in 50.0 innings.

MIRROR MIRROR ON THE WALL, WHAT'S THE FAIREST JERSEY OF THEM ALL?: The Wood Ducks have plenty of jerseys to choose from when they take the field. Currently they have a 21-10 road record. When they suit up in their camo jerseys on the road, the Wood Ducks have an 12-6 record. Their green jersey has seen the best winning percentage (.714) as the Woodies have a 6-3 record on the road and a 4-1 record at home.
