LAST GAME: Biloxi, Miss. - The Jackson Generals, the Double-A affiliate of Major League Baseball's Arizona Diamondbacks, could never really get their engines going in a 6-2 defeat against Biloxi on Wednesday at MGM Park. The home-standing Shuckers (65-44) kept Jackson (60-47) off the board entirely over the game's first eight innings, taking the victory despite the Generals outhitting the Shuckers by a 9-8 count. Full Recap: JacksonGeneralsBaseball.com
TODAY'S PITCHING MATCHUP: Right-hander Cole Stapler has looked better in his past two starts with Jackson than he did in his first three. He finished the month of July with a 4.03 ERA, but he's allowed just 2 earned runs over his last 12 innings, which were spread across his two most recent starts. Jeremy Beasley, a former Clemson Tiger, is one of only two Mobile starters with at least 15 starts this season. He's coming off his best month as well, going 2-0 with a 3.33 ERA in five July starts.
ALL-STAR 2020: On July 29, the Jackson Generals announced that they would play host to the 2020 Southern League All-Star Game at The Ballpark at Jackson, their first All-Star Game since 2011. Manager Blake Lalli was a participant in that 2011 game, which the North Division won 6-3. (CLICK: 2020 SL ASG release)
