Full Recap: JacksonGeneralsBaseball.com
TODAY'S PITCHING MATCHUP: Right-hander Bo Takahashi didn't want the month of May to end - his last four starts featured just two earned runs allowed over 23 2/3 IP, and his 2.00 ERA in the month ranked among the league's top 10 for starting pitchers. He faces Chattanooga right-hander Wendolyn Bautista, who has made only one start in 2019 in 17 appearances across three levels. His Double-A ERA sits at 8.53 in five relief appearances. He has not pitched more than four innings at any level this year.
EXTRA NOT EXTRAORDINARY: After their 10-inning defeat on May 31, the 2019 Generals are now 0-5 in extra-innings contests. Last year's championship-winning Generals finished 7-7 in extra-innings games, holding the league's fifth-best winning percentage in those games while playing the third-most games with "free baseball."
BIDDING FOR BILOXI: The Generals have several strong candidates for selection to the 2019 Midseason All-Star Game at Biloxi's MGM Park on June 18, including:
*C Daulton Varsho: .259 BA, 28 runs, 8 doubles, 8 homers, 6 stolen bases

*3B Drew Ellis: .277 BA, 29 runs, 11 doubles, 3 homers, .366 OBP
