TODAY'S PITCHING MATCHUP: Right-hander Josh Green will go for the Generals' third sweep of the season, which would be their second five-game sweep of Mobile this year. Green's last two starts for the Generals have been superb, with a pair of seven-inning performances and just three earned runs allowed in all. His 65.3% groundball rate is still neck and neck with Matt Peacock's (68.7%) for the MILB lead (among pitchers with 70+ innings). Luis Madero of Mobile is 0-6 in his last 7 starts and has not completed five innings in four of his past five starts. His last win came against the Generals on June 22, featuring 2 hits allowed & 3 earned runs.

STREAKERS: Generals Pavin Smith and Seth Beer each have active double-digit hit streaks going into their finale against Mobile. Smith is batting .385 (15-39) in his last 11 games (since July 25), while Beer is hitting .293 (12-41) in his last 10 games (since July 24), including seven games played with Corpus Christi before being traded and arriving in Jackson.

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)
