We're Going Streaking: Through the first 12 games of the season, the Missions have had nine different players collect a hit-streak of at least two games. Mauricio Dubon (2), Keston Hiura (4) and Jake Hager (2) are currently on multi-game hit streaks. Hiura and Tyrone Taylor had the longest hit streaks so far this season with five straight games.

Can't Wait to See You Again: Missions infielder Mauricio Dubon was kryptonite for Redbirds pitching the first three times these teams met. Dubon has hit safely in all three games, including walking-off the Redbirds in back-toback games on April 9 & 10. Dubon is hitting .347 (5-for-14) against Memphis with three runs batted in.

Milestone Tracker: After collecting four hits in Monday's loss to the Nashville Sounds, Missions outfielder Tyrone Taylor is currently one hit away from reaching 700 career hits. Another milestone was reached in yesterday's game when fellow Missions outfielder Corey Ray recorded his 300th career hit.
